Réseaux clandestins et mouvements armés
Abstract
This article proposes an approach of the secret networks formed by the guerrillas warfare of Latin America, by inquiring on the one hand into their genesis, and on the other, into their transformation from a local and transnational point of view. Genesis of the secret networks fits within the informality of the relationships that ground the support and the solidarity between the members but informality is also a necessary condition for these networks. At the same time, the transnational space offers to the guerrilla warfare the possibility to develop new resources. The secret transnational networks get into a new space/time marked by the break of the allegiances to the communist world.
