During the 1970s and 1980s, a significant portion of the Brazilian intellectual field focused primarily on the investigation of popular movements, including urban social movements. This process involved a great emphasis on the innovative nature of such movements, in contrast to their counterparts from the pre-1964 period. The dissemination of these studies pointed to the renewal of our political culture, historically founded on inequality, now shaken by the recognition of the entry onto the scene of new collective actors. Faced with such an analytical challenge, Brazilian social thought at the time led a phenomenological inflection, seeking to interpret these movements from the perspective of their self-construction, to the detriment of the primacy of structural factors that would condition them.
