The crowd movements mobilize resources to achieve its objectives, namely to build new frameworks of interpretation. Such resources include the intellectuals, which are essential players in all symbolic struggles taking place within January l developed societies.

In chapter empirically explores the construction of roles made for intellectuals in uncampo cultural-dominated culture euskaldum- and the frames conflicting interpretations that these intellectuals have created within the movement from the time of institutionalization autonomous.
