Paper long abstract
This presentation focusses on the collective action frame of and its relevance for social movements. For this purpose, the presentation uses the example of the Chilean student movement of 2011.
The first part gives a summary of the background of the movement, to then define the concept of collective action frames. Thirdly it summarizes the "no to profit" collective action frame and its relevance to create alternatives against the neoliberal hegemony. For the conclusion I give a comparison between the collective action frames of the Chilean student movement with the collective action frame of the student protest of 2010 in the UK.
