Sumario: | This article begins with an understanding of social networks as an epistemological and theoretical position that invites re-flection on the subjectivity of enhancing twinning. Specifically, the authors introduce Medellín’s Network of Community Or-ganizations, which emerges in the context of economic glo-balization and the onset of various types of violence in urban areas. This network is formed as a counter-hegemonic power and an emancipatory practice on the basis of the formation of politically critical subjects who mobilize and communicate in a different way within the struggle’s framework for a decent life as a principle and order of action. This approach is formulated on the basis of social network theories, political theory and the systematization of experiences. |
