AB  - This paper is an approach to the role of social movements in democratic societies and reflects on Colombian
society. Though the social movements are not inherently democratic, they contribute to the democratization
of the society and the political system, even if you assume minimalist definitions of democracy and even if they
represent a minority or their demands are undemocratic. To develop this thesis, first, examines the struggle
over the meaning of democracy exemplified in the student protests of 2011 year. Next, investigate the relationship
between democracy and social movements from the concept of social movement. Then, it analyzes the
relationship between democracy, governance and social movements. Finally, it examines some of the ways that
movements can contribute to democracy and democratization from examples of Colombian political history
