Abstract

This paper will discuss some of the forms of demonstration developed in commemorative dates, under the assumption that many of themhave been adopted at political demonstrations in 2011. In doing so, we review some of these forms of the occupation of public space, understanding them as a space of conflict. The paper also aims to understand the political demonstrations as expressions of a radical citizenship building. Citizenship because it is developed in the occupation of public space and radical because it is defined from the plurality and the pride of those who express themselves.
