Abstract
LOPEZ PACHECO, Jairo Antonio and HINCAPIE JIMENEZ, Sandra. Derechos humanos y activismo legal transnacional. Estrategias de las ONG en México y Colombia. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.49, pp.7-34. ISSN 0188-7653. https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2549-001-2017.
This article analyzes the transnational legal activism of human rights ngos in Colombia and Mexico. From a comparative methodology argue that successful transnational pressure on human rights has a determining factor in the coordination strategies of collective actors at the national level. We identified two distinct patterns of action: first, a concentration-coordination strategy of demands in the Colombian case, second a segmentation-fragmentation strategy of demands in the Mexican case.
Keywords : Transnational activism; human rights; non-governmental organizations; inter-American human rights system.
