SILVA, Carmen; KRONMULLER, Catalina; CRUZ, Melany y RIFFO, Ignacio. Empowerment in Chilean Student Movement during 2011 and 2012. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.4, pp.1299-1309. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.1114/Javeriana.up14-4.eeme.
Previous findings show weakened empowerment of groups facing macroeconomical and political powers, so this study explores movement participants' perceptions of empowerment in the Chilean student movement, years 2011-2012. A qualitative method with 18 individual interviews and three focus groups was used in students of universities and schools (N= 31). Results show empowerment in most dimensions: critical consciousness, organization, actions/behavior and contextual citizens' support. However, the sense of control in the face of the political institution is week. Implications regarding strength, movements' continuity-erosion, theoretical aspects and public policies are discussed.
