title = "Social Movements in Nicaragua (1979–2014): An Exceptional Case",
abstract = "This chapter presents the evolution of social movements in Nicaragua and its relationship to power and the Frente sandinista liberaci{\'o}n nacional (FSLN) over the four periods in the recent history of Nicaragua: the Sandinista Revolution (1979–1990); the decade of neoliberal counter-revolution (1990–2001); the period in which Daniel Ortega and Arnoldo Alem{\'a}n signed a pact of cooperation and clientelism (2001–2006); and finally the period that the FSLN returned to power (2007–present). The aim of this work is to see how social movements have established different political relationships with the FSLN: first dependency, then of cooperation and, at last, conflict. Finally, the chapter notes how social movements have raised a variety of concerns over the past 40 years.",
