    En este texto, James C. Scott desarrolla el concepto de �formas cotidianas de resistencia�. Mientras los estudios sobre las resistencias campesinas anteriores se han centrado especialmente en analizar las rebeliones violentas y organizadas, Scott trata de demostrar que éstas han sido formas minoritarias y menos prácticas de resistencia, y que los campesinos han desarrollado su resistencia principalmente por medio de las prácticas del día a día, en ocasiones de forma oculta y en cualquier caso no llamativa. Para ello, da una especial importancia no sólo a los actos, sino también a la experiencia y la conciencia de los agentes de la resistencia, entrando así en diálogo con conceptos como �la hegemonía� de Gramsci y con las corrientes más estructuralistas del marxismo.

    In this text, James C. Scott develops the concept �everyday forms of resistance�. Whereas former studies about peasant resistances have focused specially in violent and organized rebellions, Scott tries to prove how these forms of rebellion have been a minority and unpractical form of resistance. Instead, peasants have developed their resistance mainly through everyday practices, sometimes in a hidden way, and in any case not in a noteworthy way. For this purpose, he places emphasis not only in the acts, but also in the experience and consciousness of resistant agents and, by doing so, he enters into dialogue with concepts like Gramci�s �hegemony� and with the most structuralist Marxist schools.
