POMA, Alice  y  GRAVANTE, Tommaso. "System failures": Analysis from belowof the anarchist punk movement in Mexico. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2016, vol.78, n.3, pp.437-467. ISSN 2594-0651.

This article analyzes the anarcho-punk movement that emerged in Mexico in the past three decades (1984-2014). Based on sociological studies on social protest and movements, this text begins by showing how and why young people became involved in this group. It then shows how their collective identity emerged and ends with a description of the practices and values that characterize them. The study is based on ethnographic work and in-depth interviews conducted with members of different generations in two of the main scenarios of the Mexican anarcho-punk movement: Guadala-jara and Mexico City.
