When grievances are successfully framed within a political context, they evoke stronger reactions than general discontent. mobilization theory also argues that grievances alone are not enough to motivate violent collective action.80 Fearon and Laitin imply that relative deprivation is too preoccupied with economic grievances. Hoffman argues therefore that terrorists do not follow "purely egocentric goals; he is not driven by the wish to line his own pocket or satisfy some personal need or grievance" (Hoffman, 2006:37). However, this egocentric process can still be considered a form of Group interest instrumentalisation of politics, in that despite the objective being the acquisition of political power; the grievances of the group are nevertheless addressed. Simply put, any attempt by an elite to manipulate a larger group for his/her own personal political goals would not succeed unless there exists a genuine (or at least perceived as genuine) grievance or societal issue that a group has focused on through a shared feeling of identity.
