Abstract

The central objectives of this conference follow two directions: to analyse the social movements in the light of the notion of the capitalist mode of production, and to critically review the concepts of "new" social movements spread by many authors, showing the theoretical insufficiencies that guided their analyses. In this sense, it points to the fact that, while some social movements struggled solely for citizenship, others proposed the rupture with the capitalist State.
