MATIAS ROSSI, Federico. Las asambleas vecinales y populares en la Argentina: las particularidades organizativas de la acción colectiva contenciosa. Sociológica (Méx.) [online]. 2005, vol.20, n.57, pp.113-145. ISSN 2007-8358.

The 2001 Argentinean crisis opened up political opportunities for the emergence of a new political actor: the “assembly social movement”. This article is based on the ethnographic observation of several cases of assemblies in Buenos Aires from 2002 to 2003, but using as paradigmatic examples the groups that would constitute themselves as the moderate and radical wings, respectively, the Palermo Viejo Neighborhood Assembly and the El Cid Popular Assembly. This empirical study of mobilization structures allows us to conclude saying that this is a networked, segmented, decentralized social movement.

Palabras llave : social movements; Argentina; neighborhood assemblies; popular assemblies; structures of mobilization.
