| description | Current forms of socio-political mobilization in the Middle East are rooted in the transformations afforded by the region’s participation in the making of a global institutional modernity which is both productive and ideological. This paper explores the emergence of new social agents and the social movements they have sought out as partners and precipitated. In many cases these forces have been proposing or subverting reforms to the state and the public order since the last decades of the Ottoman Empire, through the mandate period and beyond the postcolonial social pact. Ottoman modernity was characterized by fierce debates and the emergence of new activities and public spaces which afforded the mobilization of established and newly constituted social agents. In some cases such debates were forcefully suspended by mandate administrations and their collaborators. The process of decolonization at mid-century and the wave of revolutions which unfolded in its wake brought historically marginal sectors to power in much of the region. These were groups which institutionalized their own visions of the common good; establishing a postcolonial social pact which defended the construction of militarized, authoritarian state apparatuses. Furthermore, I present a critical overview of the forms mobilization has assumed in the region over the past decades: the social landscape and the dynamics of mobilization which have given rise to the revolts and revolutions unfolding today. Finally, I undertake an analysis of the press coverage of the revolts in the Arab and international press online, pointing to synergies and discontinuities in the interpretation of women’s participation on the revolutions and the Islamist presence in processes of post-revolutionary political consolidation. |

Las movilizaciones actuales en el Medio Oriente están ancladas en las transformaciones que resultaron de la participación de la región en la construcción de una modernidad global institucional, productiva e ideológica. En este artículo se explora el surgimiento de nuevos actores sociales en la región y los movimientos sociales que han propiciado, proponiendo o resistiendo reformas al Estado y al orden público desde las últimas décadas del momento otomano, durante el periodo de los mandatos y más allá del pacto social poscolonial. La modernidad otomana se caracterizó por intensos debates y el surgimiento de nuevas actividades y espacios públicos, que permitieron la movilización de actores nuevos y establecidos; debates que fueron suspendidos, por la fuerza, por las administraciones mandatarias y sus colaboradores. El proceso de descolonización, a mediados del siglo XX, y la ola de revoluciones que se desencadenó, llevaron al poder en gran parte de la región a sectores históricamente marginales. Ellos, a su vez, institucionalizaron sus propias visiones del bien común, e instauraron un pacto social poscolonial que defendía la construcción de aparatos de Estado autoritarios y militarizados. Se hace un repaso crítico de las formas que ha tomado la movilización en la región en las últimas décadas: el paisaje social y las dinámicas de organización que han dado pie a las revueltas y las revoluciones que observamos hoy día. Finalmente, se presenta una discusión de la cobertura mediática de los levantamientos en la prensa árabe e internacional en línea, y se señalan sinergias y discontinuidades, evidenciadas en la interpretación de la participación de las mujeres en las revueltas y la presencia islamista en los procesos de consolidación posrevolucionaria.
