意味
Expresses indignation or protest against an injustice or unfair situation.
文化的背景
The phrase is deeply linked to the 'Indignados' movement. It's common to see it on cardboard signs during protests in Puerta del Sol. While 'No hay derecho' is used, 'No se vale' is often the preferred everyday equivalent for smaller injustices or broken promises. In Argentina, the phrase is often used with a tone of weary resignation regarding the economy or political scandals. Used frequently in student protests to demand 'derecho a la educación' (right to education), playing on both the literal and figurative meanings.
