Abstract
DE CURREA-LUGO, Víctor. Nine (preliminary) lessons learnt from the Arab revolts to the Social movements. Pap.polit. [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.2, pp.563-600. ISSN 0122-4409. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.PAPO19-2.nlra.
Studying the Arab revolts is to study an ongoing process, and therefore it has limits which prevent us from formulating final conclusions. However, there is an academic obligation to study this process. In these times of lack of references about how to work politically among societies, the Arab uprising may offer some preliminary lessons. These lessons are not magical formulas, but dilemmas and political tensions, useful and full of questions, such as: how to construct political models, its relationship with ethnical, religious and tribal agendas, the challenges of stigmatiza-tion, and the definition of methods and means for political action.
