Using data from the SAHWA Youth Survey 2016 (2017), this paper presents a study of the degree and types of political and religious participation - as well as the links that connect one to the other - among the youth of five Arab Mediterranean countries (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Lebanon). In politics, four types of participation are distinguished: official, everyday, community and protest. Between 5% and 17% of those surveyed could be considered hyperactivists, in that they participate in three or four of these types; in around a third, there was no participation at all. On the other hand, the majority of the young people considered themselves to be highly religious and, in three of the countries, a third attended the mosque at least three times a week. But the levels of religiosity did not influence political participation, as even the majority of the highly religious supported separating politics from religion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The irruption of social protest in big scale is a characteristic element of the Argentina's society from '90 decade to the present. The roadblock, the practice of the assembly, the emergence of social actors such as the "piqueteros", as well as traditional repertories such as strikes leaded by syndicates place these and other ways of collective action as privileged resources that scholars call "modular repertories", that is, models of actions that are used by the rest of the society despite the fact that they may not share the same goals of those who created them. In this sense, the following paper proposes the discussion on this phenomenon from a conceptual approach around the idea of political culture of protest. This idea is articulated on the tension between politics and culture concepts, the first idea of political culture, and de last contributions that come form theories of collective action applied to the social movements, protest and revolutions.
