This research seeks to understand the relationship between communicative processes and the citizenship’s achievements. Here, communication is perceived in its broadest sense – it includes the mass media information, that brings information and entertainment, but are often manipulated by economic interests; the alternative media, which amplifies voices and fight for rights, especially those practiced by the social movements; and the interpersonal communication, dialogic, which permeates people’s everyday processes and the public spheres discussions, generating debate. All these "communications" are perceived as an essential part of understanding what is citizenship, the way it evolves and influences the manner citizens are seen as such. Social movements are analyzed as a fundamental part of this issue, since they act as the principal agents of struggle for rights in contemporary societies. This study justifies itself as it seeks to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between the communication processes that permeate the daily life of civil society, from the communication analysis involving social movements. The main proposition is the communication in all its aspects is essential to these movements while actors in the fighting for rights and citizenship’s strengthening. For this, we present a historical and the current discussion of the concepts of citizenship, human rights, participation and social movements and their relations with the communication field. The goal is to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between communication, democratic processes and the construction of citizenship, systematically little researched yet. This theoretical study uses as methodology the literature survey in order to identify, discuss and relate concepts already developed by researchers from the different fields addressed.
