Resumen
Tras las Revoluciones de Colores y la Primavera Árabe, las investigaciones que vinculan la resistencia no violenta (RNV) y la democratización se incrementaron notablemente. Sin embargo, los estudios sobre su efecto en la consolidación democrática siguen siendo escasos. A través de una interpretación neotocquevilleana de democracia, este artículo desarrolla que las protestas de RNV contra gobiernos autoritarios proporcionan recursos importantes para el desarrollo de una ciudadanía democrática y pueden afectar positivamente a la democratización. Como consecuencia de estas luchas, la agencia individual de cada ciudadano aumenta, lo que les permite participar y resistir las represiones si es preciso. A nivel colectivo los activistas participantes sobrepasan sus límites, y la agencia colectiva de toda la población se ve influenciada de forma sostenible al crear una narrativa común sobre el éxito de la lucha. El triunfo de estos hitos simbólicos brinda la oportunidad de reconectar con un movimiento de masas renovado. Por último, estas movilizaciones están integradas en un contexto internacional: las olas de protestas como la Primavera Árabe generan redes internacionales de activistas y simpatizantes.
