Abstract

This article will seek to explain the role that emotions play within an organized group of people injured by the explosions of April 22, 1992 in Guadalajara. Being disabled people, older adults and mostly women, this group has had to fight for the last 30 years to solve two fundamental problems: access to comprehensive health services and a life pension. However, the obstacles have been many. Moving away from conventional models to explain collective action, we wish to follow some of the theoretical tools provided by the sociology of emotions to understand the meaning of pain among these people, but seen not only from the bodily angle, but also from its social content. Likewise, how this debate can be taken to its moral dimensions as an explanatory factor of social mobilization.
