TRIGUBOFF, Matías. Deciding all together: Reflections on the mechanisms of deliberation and decision in collective organization. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2018, n.48, pp.73-89. ISSN 1850-275X.

The article retakes the discussion on the forms of organization and decision of social movements, through the study of plenary meetings of the popular assemblies formed in Argentina between 2001 and 2006. From an anthropological relational approach, it analyzes how they were a place for meeting and exchange rather than a common decision space, and how their dynamics were affected by different tensions and differentiations. It shows how different meanings surrounding the dynamics of the plenary meetings were not confined to delimiting a common methodological criterion of functioning, but involved a political conception regarding assemblies, establishing certain power relations among its members.

Palabras clave : Popular assemblies; Collective action; Decision-making; Plenary meetings; Power relations.
