mobilização

English translation: mobilization

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Portuguese term or phrase:mobilização
English translation:mobilization

Social Sciences - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
Portuguese term or phrase: mobilização
" (...) é fruto de um processo histórico de mobilização e lutas sociais pela redemocratização do país."

alguns glossários dão como "mobilization", porém pelo que pesquisei, "mobilization" tem um sentido apenas militar, como de mobilização de forças armadas, e neste caso refere-se à mobilização do povo.
