In their forward for social change, political action is understood
through their own practices of collaborative creation and the commons as
their principal value (economic and moral). They do not see themselves
as “militants” or even as “activists” (although some participate in
movements like the 15M) because they move on horizontal network
structures of sharing that opposite the classic conception of social
movement as which links together structural organization, collective
identity and political goals.
This case study, situated mainly in Spain, offers an example of
new forms of mobilization that question the current frameworks of
“social movement”, an de-centre the focus of analysis from the organized
“political action” to the everyday practices that entails to look at
materiality, space, sociality and expectations of future.

I think this must have been originally written in Spanish, as it's a bit tricky to read. Hopefully the english translation will be good.
