SUMMARY:The Social Outburst in Latin America
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ana María Fernández. PhD. Foreign Language. Universi
 ty of Ottawa\, Canada.\n\nDr. Fernández is the co-editor of the special j
 ournal Manifesting Democracy in Latin America and the Caribbean. (CALACS J
 ournal on Latin American Studies\, 2022).\n\nDr. Fernández will introduce
  the volume\, which presents nine visions that articulate how social movem
 ents are organizing themselves\, taking to the streets\, and social media 
 platforms\, to counterbalance inequity and find representation in Latin Am
 erica. The nine contributions revise the contexts in which protests\, upri
 sings\, pickets\, and parades have taken place in the last decade. The con
 tributions analyze how effective these manifestations have been in terms o
 f their goals and the (in)direct outcomes\, as well as their short- and lo
 ng-term impact on societies at both local and global levels.\n\nClick Here

 main labor unions\, and different organizations of the social movement\, c

 reception: the government had a very high level of disapproval on the part
  of the citizens and the whole atmosphere was joined by the revelation of 
 a bombing that was approved in San Vicente del Caguán\, in which eight mi
 nors were murdered.\n
