AMADOR-BAQUIRO, Juan Carlos  and  MUNOZ-GONZALEZ, Germán. From alteractivism to social outbreak: collective and connective youth action (2011 & 2019). Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.1, pp.176-203.  Epub Mar 17, 2021. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.19.1.4588.

In this article we analyze the participation of young people in the alteractivist movements of 2011 and the social outbreaks of 2019, who, apparently, have been protagonists of new forms of collective and connective action. From the qualitative research approach and the documentary method, we check a corpus of 61 documents about academic literature and media information. The results show: the ontological and sociopolitical redefinition of the youth condition based on collective action; the transition from anti-globalization political practices to more radical repertoires of collective action that seek to resist precariousness and violence; and connective actions that go from replication strategies to exchanges between content managers and audiences, through multimodal-performative texts.

Keywords : Youth; alteractivism; social outbreak; collective action; connective action.
