RICO REVELO, Diana  and  BOLIVAR DE LA OSSA, Lorena. The efficacy of participation in social organizations of victims: perception of leaders in the department of Atlántico. anal.polit. [online]. 2014, vol.27, n.82, pp.72-87. ISSN 0121-4705.  https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v27n82.49408.

The research inquired the sense of efficacy that victims' leaders, grant to their participation in social organizations in a setting that involves high risks. Data were analyzed with the software Atlas.ti; having as theoretical reference frameworks for collective action, rational action, and current approaches to moral and emotional processes related to social protest. The results argue that given the threatening circumstances surrounding the cases studied, it requires deeper moral and emotional variables, which may alter theoretical models applied in other regions where participation does not involve risking their lives.

Keywords : Collective Action; Efficacy; collective identity; moral conviction and positive emotions.
