ORTIZ LEMOS, Andrés. Civil society and Citizens Revolution in Ecuador. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2014, vol.76, n.4, pp.583-612. ISSN 2594-0651.

With the aim of establishing a participatory democratic model, in line with the demands of social movements, the Citizens Revolution project in Ecuador has created a complex regulatory-institutional machinery, which, paradoxically, seeks to reify the main scenarios of action by civil society in the public sphere. This process has been characterized by the standardization and bureaucratization of opportunities for participation and social control; the design of state strategies of confrontation towards social movements, and the disciplinary control of spheres of opinion created by the media and universities.

Palavras-chave : Ecuador; civil society; social movements; public sphere; participation in democracy; Citizens Revolution.
