Abstract

The article proposes a comparative analysis of the different progressive and post-progressive scenarios for the collective action of social movements and youth in Ecuador and Argentina. The authors discuss the changes and consequences in the dynamics of organization and aggregation of youth interests, their constitutive subjectivities and repertoires of collective action in the different governmental scenarios with or without public youth policies, the dissimilar institutional processes of managing youth rights, and youth political cultures. They differentiate three moments in the organizational process and collective action of youth: the period prior to progressivism with an increase in organization and social struggle anchored more in the activation of rights from civil society and less in the State; the progressive period with the generic adoption of inclusive social rights from the State and the socio-organizational eclipse; and the post-progressive period with the erosion of social policies, noting that at different junctures the militancy of young people changed in their relationship and ways of interpreting the State.
