Özet:The growing discussion regarding social movements in the hegemonic context of liberal democracies, as well as the increasing number of groups organized for different reasons, raises questions about the States’ apparatuses for the maintenance of democracy. This paper aims to discuss the emergence of social movements in the context of transnationality and epistemic communities. Thus, the theories about democracyand social movements are addressed.

These groups are conceptualized as transnational networks and epistemic communities, based on the discussions of critical constructivism.
