El surgimiento del Movice y la teoría contemporánea de los movimientos sociales

Abstract

The National Movement of Victims of State Crimes has led the struggle against the impunity of the victims of violence generated by the Colombian State, through the construction of a clear vision of the origin and scope of the conflict and national violence, and through a transversal articulation of different pre-existing social and collective movements that joined efforts. This article analyzes the historical emergence of the movement in the light of contemporary theories of social movements, concluding with the identification of some of its strengths and areas of improvement in this struggle for truth, justice, reparation and guarantees of non-repetition.
