Definition from
Wikipedia:
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.
Example sentences:

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)

Note from asker:
hnutie zdola je výstižnejší výraz a modernejší.Ľudové hnutie je v tomto prípad nejednoznačné a má pejoratívnu konotáciu lebo ho roky zneužívali stúpenci marxizmu. |
