El 5 de febrero de 1971 tuvo lugar en Uruguay la culminación de un largo y zigzagueante proceso; la constitución del Frente Amplio (FA), un espacio que logró unificar a partidos de izquierda, independientes y sectores progresistas de los partidos tradicionales -Nacional y Colorado. Aquel nuevo actor llevó a que distintos sectores de la izquierda revolucionaria se planteasen qué camino seguir frente a la participación política parlamentaria. Las respuestas no fueron homogéneas, algunos como la Federación Anarquista Uruguaya (FAU) decidieron no participar del FA; otros optaron por abandonar la clandestinidad y se acercaron a la vía electoral. Por último, una tercera alternativa fue la implementada por el Movimiento de Liberación Nacional- Tupamaros (MLN-T); este movimiento político en armas -como se autodefinía- se inclinó por mantener su clandestinidad y lucha armada, pero brindando un apoyo crítico. Parte de ese apoyo consintió en la construcción de un movimiento que integró casi desde sus orígenes al recientemente creado partido de unidad. Dentro de dicho panorama el presente artículo busca reflexionar sobre las estrategias del MLN-T para conformar y dar visibilidad a una estructura político legal; el Movimiento de Independientes 26 de Marzo (MI26M), su “brazo político” dentro del FA. Para tal fin, en un primer momento se presentará el contexto nacional e internacional en el cual cobró vida el FA, posteriormente se analizará la relación entre el MLN-T y aquel nuevo actor político, para finalmente describir las especificidades del MI26M y las respuestas que sus prácticas generaron al interior del frente.
