I participated in the European CREOLE program of international interchange between universities. In this sense, I realized 6 months of the program in the National University of Ireland, Maynooth (NUIM), which has the best department of Anthropology in the country.
My master thesis "Engaged Protests: Frame Analysis of the social movement Mortgage Affected Citizens Platform in Barcelona", presented in 2014, analyzed how the assembly dynamics of the Mortgage Affected-Citizens Platform of Barcelona generates a collective identity by a process of adscription which was indistinguishable from the process of empowerment.
The main idea was that to overcome the initial stigma of being in a process of eviction required the recognition that the mass evictions were the consequence of a collective social injustice around the generation of virtual debt. In the moment that affected citizens overcome this stigma, they tend to mobilize in the campaigns of the Platform.
