Music is an art form that affects each individual in a different way. The varying effects that music has makes it a subjective matter despite the specificity of the topic. "Musical and Social Movements: Mobilizing Traditions in the Twentieth Century" by Ron Eyerman and Andrew Jamison focuses on the cognitive praxis and sixties culture. Through the study of culture and what society was like at the time, Eyerman and Jamison explain the interrelations between music and social movements in the United States. Popular music in the 1960s served to create a sense of collective expression that was then diffused into the larger society because of its natural openness to youth and the accessibility of its forms. Eyerman and Jamison effectively use logos to illustrate how social movements and popular culture interacted with each other in a collective way that led to the wide-ranging and long-term processes of cultural transformation that occurred in America in the 1960s. 

Eyerman and Jamison create a substantial argument primarily through their usage of logos throughout the chapter. The authors "persuade by using reasoning and evidence" (Carolina Rhetoric 13) by providing examples of musicians, the different factors, both contextual and textual, external and internal that led to the creative revolution of culture and politics in the 1960s. The authors' opinion or stance is never stated or shown throughout the article. The authors provide evidence throughout the article by quoting and introducing reliable sources that support the argument.  By citing and referencing sociomusicologist, Simon Firth, Eyermen and Jamsion build a logical basis for youth's role in shaping music and it allows the reader to rationalize that the argument has been researched and studied. The authors also use logos when explaining what was occurring in society at the time. By using student activist Todd Gitlin's first hand account of how "one moment in the early 1960s, the 'years of hope' that preceded the 'days of rage' at the end of the decade" (Eyerman, Jamison 116) the authors are able to provide evidence and direct quotes to emphasize the centricity of music to the politics of the 1960s. The authors' usage of cited information and integrated quotes creates the opportunity for the reader to read information that has not been altered or reworded. 

By using and citing credible sources, the authors not only use logos but are also using pathos. Credibility is established by referencing experts such as sociomusicologist Simon Firth, and introducing Kenneth Keniston as "one of the most important American scholars to reflect on the meaning of youth" (Eyermen, Jamison 110). Credibility is reinforced by addressing the counterarguments for each topic throughout the article. In doing so, the authors show confidence in their argument and establish credibility by providing both sides of the argument to the readers.
