CORBELLE, Florencia. Civil society inside Parliament: Old and new actors in the debate on the amendment of the current drug law. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2013, n.38, pp.85-107. ISSN 1850-275X.

In this paper I analyze the transformations linked to increasing civil society participation in Parliament after the 2001 crisis, starting from the debate initiated in the Chamber of Deputies around the drug law reform projects in early 2011. To do so, I take up the established-outsiders model -proposed by Elias and Scotson (2000) and then rethought by Noel (2011)- insofar as it provides insight into the conflict unleashed between the different civil society organizations -the outsiders- claim to be recognized as valid spokesmen in the National Congress and their recognition -or not- by the socially-legitimated actors to draft and discuss bills: legislators, advisers and civil servants -the established.
