Abstract
© 2022 Ariadna Ediciones. All rights reserved.This article aims to analyze, from a comparative perspective, the processes of collective resistance against test-based accountability policies in education in three countries: Chile, Spain, and Mexico. The study follows the comparative method to identify the convergences and divergences between the Alto al SIMCE movement in Chile, the teacher protest movement in Mexico, and the Green Tides movement in Spain. The results indicate that the adoption processes and the specific forms of test-based accountability policies can influence, condition, and constrain social movements’ protests and the possibilities for social change, underlining the interdependent relationship between action and social structure, which is key to explaining social a protest’s success or failure.
