Description
Summary:After numerous mobilizations during 2019, the health crisis at the beginning of 2020 led to the implementation of multiple restrictive measures, limiting or prohibiting travel and gatherings in the public space in several Latin American countries. The severity of these measures and the choice of designating armed actors for their enforcement suggest that social and political struggles have come to a halt. Based on Chilean, Guatemalan and Venezuelan cases, selected for their great disparities, this paper argues that the health situation plays only a marginal role in the evolution of mobilization dynamics. More broadly, the pandemic does not seem to imply any fundamental upheaval in the evolution of social movements.
