Abstract

The 15–M movement is becoming an important novelty in the political and social landscape. This article aims to approach its origin as well as some of its main features. It also analyses the contextual factors that explain its emergence and is an approach to the major developments involved in this movement in terms of political change and collective action. Also highlighted are such issues as the range of types of mobilisation used, the role played by Internet in the amplification of the protest, the types of organization emerging around the movement, the language used and the forms of deliberation, and how their proposals for action are constructed. Finally, the article concludes with a reflection on future scenarios for this movement.
