Abstract

FERNANDEZ ALATORRE, Ana Corina. Young People and New Forms of Collective Action. The Case of South Camping in the Center of Coyoacan. Rev. mex. opinión pública [online]. 2015, n.18, pp.71-90. ISSN 2448-4911.  https://doi.org/10.1016/s1870-7300(15)71361-x.

Here we share some reflections about the perspective of some young people who lived experience as camped in the central square of Coyoacán in the Federal District, during October and November 2011. Through participant observation, was performed an exploratory approach to the use and disposal of the space, forms of operation and the opinions expressed in interviews conducted during the first weeks of camping. This approach was carried out within the framework of a research that had been exploring, since 2010, through stories of life and focus groups, paths and identity processes of young people involved in different forms of collective action2, in addition to their participation in organizations through which carried out communitybased educational interventions, these youngsters expressed their commitment to the outraged movement during 2011 and the movement I am 132 in 2012.

Keywords : Youngsters; outraged; collective action.
