Produktbeschreibung
In this paper we recover a set of inquiries to understand the practices, meanings and realities of certain youth groups inscribed in contexts of urban poverty. Particularly, we have taken as a case study those subjects identified as "young people from the corner", a category that appears in the common sense representations associated with delinquency, drugs, vagrancy, etc. However, our purpose to interpret the ways of being, doing and meaning that these youth groups assume, reveals the interest in exploring and knowing more deeply these social groups in their own daily experiences and in the spaces through which they circulate, inhabit and dispute within their communities. In this book, the articulation between youth, poverty and public space is approached from the observations of some identity constructions of poor young people have self-endowed, where places such as squares, kiosks and corners acquired visibility and meaning for them, but that have caused a tense relationship with their social environment, mainly with the institutional adult world.
