Abstract

The global struggle for the conquest and/or preservation of values such as solidarity, equality, inclusion, democracy, suffers a set back when we think about some social groups, such as children, and the question of the violation of its rights. This article discusses how globalisation and transformation processes develop erosion in the traditional institutional forms and a strong and intense social reorganization. This affects the social structure that produces new social political mobilizations, namely the developing of social movements carrying new values, such as children social movements (CSM's).
