ALVARADO ALCAZAR, Alejandro. The Criminalization of Social Protest: A State of the Question. Rev. Rup. [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.1, pp.25-43. ISSN 2215-2989.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/rr.v10i1.2749.

Recently, the criminalization of protest has been placed as a topic of academic and non-academic discussion in Latin America. Despite this, the debate has developed, in many cases, in the midst of a conceptual uncertainty about what is (and what is not) the criminalization of protest. The present article intends to contribute to this discussion through the construction of a state of the question that recovers the main works developed around this topic, placing particular emphasis on what has been produced for the Latin American case. The information has been obtained through the systematic consultation of bibliographic databases and it has been ordered trying to answer three fundamental questions: 1) what is the criminalization of the protest? 2) What are its most common manifestations? and, 3) what role does the State play?

Palavras-chave : social movements; collective action; social protest; criminalization of social protest; repression.
