Abstract

The mobilization of the Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity (MPJD) in Mexico is acknowledged as a key moment in the country’s contemporary history. We analyze how the MPJD has been studied and what we know about this social movement. Based on a review of articles published in the most prestigious journals in Mexico, we argue, first, that most studies about the MPJD are characterized by a non-systematic treatment of information that leads to conclusions that are rather hypotheses that need to be tested; second, that the academic production on this social movement has provided reflections and analyses around six themes relevant to social movement studies.
