Este artículo analiza iniciativas de solidaridad dirigidas a grupos vulnerabilizados en España en el contexto de la crisis posterior a 2008. El análisis se basa en la perspectiva de Polanyi sobre los contramovimientos que se desarrollan en la sociedad para contrarrestar las fuerzas mercantilistas inherentes al capitalismo (Polanyi, 2001; Fraser, 2012). El trabajo se basa en una serie de estudios de caso de iniciativas solidarias desarrolladas en el ámbito de la reproducción social y orientadas a cubrir necesidades básicas. Estos estudios de caso han mostrado cómo en estas iniciativas se repiten patrones similares tanto en los objetivos de los grupos como en sus prácticas. En primer lugar, persiguen la inclusión social a través de la justicia social; y, en segundo lugar, construyen una identidad colectiva alternativa, un "nosotros" que busca resistir al individualismo del mercado a través de la solidaridad y la ayuda mutua. Argumentamos que la constitución de esta identidad colectiva tiene lugar mediante la formación de círculos de reconocimiento (Pizzorno, 1986) en el activismo que recuperan una épica popular basada en la solidaridad y el cuidado mutuo, en la construcción de un “nosotr@s interdependiente” y que tienen el ámbito local como esfera de acción.
This article analyzes solidarity initiatives directed at vulnerable groups in Spain in the context of the post-2008 crisis. The analysis is based on Polanyi's perspective on the counter-movements that develop in society to counteract the mercantilist forces inherent in capitalism (Polanyi, 2001; Fraser, 2012). The work is based on a series of case studies of solidarity initiatives developed in the field of social reproduction and aimed at meeting basic needs. These case studies have shown how in these initiatives similar patterns are repeated both in the objectives of the groups and in their practices. First, they pursue social inclusion through social justice; and, secondly, they construct an alternative collective identity, a "we" that seeks to resist the individualism of the market through solidarity and mutual aid. We argue that the constitution of this collective identity takes place through the formation of circles of recognition (Pizzorno, 1986) in activism that recover a popular epic based on solidarity and mutual care, in the construction of an "interdependent we" and that have the local sphere as a sphere of action.
