Abstract

During the first military intervention of the United States in the Dominican Republic, between 1916 and 1924, social movements expressing variants of resistance to the occupiers' program were characteristically activated. In essence, these movements existed since the years prior to the establishment of the military government, but from this they took on a significantly greater dimension and acquired new nuances. For this reason, the eight years that the occupation lasted were characterized by the intensity of social movements, which can be attributed to the combination of subjective elements introduced by foreign domination with the rejection of the completion of the modernization programs that had been outlined within the Dominican State since previous decades.
