Description
Summary:In the last 20 years, the number of non-violent movements oriented to oust authoritarian regimes to establish democratic models has increased. Our focus is centered upon a movement of non-violent action and female initiative, built on the principles of the ethics of care, born in August 2020 from the presidential elections in the Republic of Belarus. We consider that this is a different movement from the color revolutions, as the Russian and Belarus governments insist on their link with the latter. The objective of this research is to make known this new movement for which we utilized the methodology of document analysis. The present research theme contributes to Irenology, the study of peace.
