English term
grassroots movement
It’s a common misconception that social movements occur spontaneously. Although usually requiring a spark to emerge into the public eye, movements result from decades of conscious and persistent grassroots movement building efforts. (exco)
Grassroots organizing can be harder than it sounds: a mix of social networking, savvy funding, and judicious decision-making can go a long way. (eHow)
Grassroots groups have increased their activity, newspapers and magazines have begun writing more about the issue, and a recent Wall Street Journal article showed that some high-end restaurants are rebelling (CommonDreams.org)

grassroots movement
Definition:
A grassroots movement (often referenced in the context of a political movement) is one driven by the constituents of a community. The term implies that the creation of the movement and the group supporting it is natural and spontaneous, highlighting the differences between this and a movement that is orchestrated by traditional power structures.
The following is my own translation of the above definition:
基层运动
定义：
基层运动，这一概念通常用在政治运动的背景下，是指由社会成员发起的运动。该词意味着运动的诞生以及支持它的群体是自然形成的，是自发的，凸显了它有别于传统权力架构所策划的运动。
工作坊：抵抗與爭取—基層運動與新自由主義 週四, 2006-06-15 00:45 — 葉蔭聰 基層與新自由主義學習工作坊 全球都吹著「新自由主義」的風潮，勞工彈散化、小政府大市場、削減公共開支成了各國政府的口頭禪。作為基層運動，我們眼中的新自由主義是甚麼？與我們多個不同的倡議運動有甚麼關係？我們的出路又是甚麼？ 為了令大家對這些問題有更多的認識及討論，民間監察世貿聯盟誠意邀請任何有興趣的朋友，從基本的知識、沿運動的脈絡，探討基層與新自由主義的種種。 Grassroots and Neo-liberalism “Neo-liberalism”, “deregulation”, “flexible labour”, “budget cut”, we all heard the government talk about them before. But, what these means for grassroots movement? What is the relationship of them between our advocacies? What is the alternative? HKPA organize two workshops in order to discuss about the basic knowledge and campaign strategies. (香港獨立媒體網(inmediahk.net))
