LOS JÓVENES DEBEMOS DISPUTAR EL PODER. LAS JUVENTUDES COMUNISTAS DE CHILE Y EL MOVIMIENTO ESTUDIANTIL UNIVERSITARIO (2000-2011).

This research reviews the relationship between the Communist Youth of Chile and the university student movement between 2000 and 2011, identifying the transformations in the communist identity generated by this process. In addition, elements of the organization's influence on this student movement were identified. The changes experienced from this relationship highlight the relevance that the student space acquired for the JJ.CC. which developed political-programmatic proposals that aimed the questioning of neoliberalism in education. For their part, the JJ.CC. developed a pragmatic sense of their political work from the need to open to other actors, which brought the organization out of the isolation in which it moved during the first years of the 1990s and 2000s.
