Civil rights was importantly economic (i.e., the poor peoples movement/march). It was in fact intertwined with anti-poverty activities of various types, including welfare rights. Civil rights per se is fundamentally a process thing, I would agree.
Vietnam was not a process thing. The object was not, we should decide democratically whether or not to wage war in SE Asia. That was some of the background music. The main object was get the hell out. Very clearly an outcome demand.
If my position be hubris, it does not stem from being an economist. Being an economist stems from an interest of this sort. If it be hubris, it is prior to becoming an economist. Then again, my first grade teacher told my mother I was arrogant. Can't imagine why.
