%X The emergence of social movements in the public arena had to do with neoliberalism∩s negative consequences. Different actors with different interests worked together against the system, which became their ※common antagonist§.  On the one hand, after years of autonomous organization, these social movements won social recognition and increased their power. On the other, political parties and trade unions lost legitimacy.  In December 2005, a faction of the Bolivian social movements won the general elections, and Evo Morales (the cocalero movement∩s leader) became the first Aymara president in Bolivian history. How to manage this government it is one of the majors challenges the social movements confront in today＊s Bolivia.  La emergencia de movimientos sociales en la esfera p迆blica est芍 ligada a las consecuencias negativas del neoliberalismo.  Actores sociales provenientes de distintos sectores y con intereses distintos unieron fuerzas contra un sistema que se convirti車 en el ※antagonista com迆n§.  Despu谷s de a os de organizaci車n aut車noma, estos movimientos lograron reconocimiento pol赤tico e incrementaron su poder de gesti車n, mientras los partidos pol赤ticos y los sindicatos perd赤an legitimidad.  En diciembre 2005 una facci車n de los movimientos sociales gan車 las elecciones generales y Evo Morales (l赤der del movimiento cocalero) se convirti車 en el primer Presidente aymara de la historia de Bolivia. C車mo gestionar este gobierno constituye hoy d赤a uno de los mayores retos que enfrentan los movimientos sociales.
