| Sumario: | In the context of the 2019 Chilean social uprising, collective experiences emerged that challenged dominant logics, promoting horizontal practices, direct action, and consensual democracy, despite facing internal tensions. This article examines these experiences through their heterogeneity, exploring how diverse forms of political engagement complicate the dichotomy between militancy and activism and require recognition to fully understand these practices. Based on ethnographic research involving participant observation and in-depth interviews, three key dimensions are identified: organization, political orientation, and participation, along with eight figures of contemporary engagement. This study provides tools for analyzing collective dynamics and proposes new avenues for investigating emerging forms of political action in contexts of social change and crisis.
