No. 11 (2025): Revueltas. Revista Chilena de Historia Social Popular 11 | Past and Present of Teaching Organizations Part II

The eleventh issue of REVUELTAS. Revista Chilena de Historia Social Popular reaffirms the horizon that has guided its trajectory: to consolidate an editorial space for the dissemination of research that, from multiple scales and approaches, addresses the social processes led by popular sectors in Latin America. In this spirit, our journal aims to be a meeting point for diverse perspectives and disciplines—such as social history, historical sociology, cultural studies, and other related fields—focused on the study of social conflicts, organizational forms, and institutional transformations in various regional contexts. We are pleased to share this issue, which brings together contributions from different countries across the continent, thus reinforcing the regional character of the journal.

The core of this edition is the second part of the dossier “Past and Present of Teachers’ Organizations”, whose detailed overview is presented by its coordinators, Adriana Migliavacca and Christian Matamoros. This second installment, continuing the work published in issue 10, gathers research primarily focused on local or provincial scales, with an emphasis on organizational processes and conflicts of the current century. Through case studies from Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Uruguay, and Chile, the articles examine repertoires of action, internal debates, disputes over the meaning of public education, and tense relations with state apparatuses in different national contexts, identifying both continuities and transformations in collective action and in the links between teachers’ unions, social movements, and public policies.
