Abstract

FRY, Mariana. Latin American social movements. Critical theories and debates about training. Rev. Cien. Soc. [online]. 2020, vol.33, n.47, pp.13-30.  Epub Dec 01, 2020. ISSN 0797-5538.  https://doi.org/10.26489/rvs.v33i47.1.

This article reviews the critical approaches on social movements developed in the last two decades in Latin America, aiming to discuss to which extent these involve a theoretical renewal in the field of study of social movements. For this sake, we review the criticism to European and North American theories, the different ways of integration and reworking of elements from these approaches, and the debates and concepts specifically elaborated to understand the features of Latin American social mobilization. In this context, the place of the debate around training imparted by social movements in the current academic production is given special attention.

Keywords : social movements; Latin American theories; training.
