In this paper we study the -stability of closed hypersurfaces with constant -th mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvature. In this setting, we obtain a characterization of the -stable ones through of the analysis of the first eigenvalue of an operator naturally attached to the -th mean curvature.
