Mobilized Youth: Regional Political Agendas?
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
This article analyses some of the patterns in four of the main stages of youth protest in Latin America. Through data collected from survey questionnaires applied to a sample of participants in different episodes of social protest in Mexico City, Santiago de Chile, Bogotá, Colombia, and Recife in Brazil, three convergences are traced that allow us to think about the transversal character of the claims and vindications of the young population in Latin America. Specifically, it is interesting to highlight how it is that, despite the diversity of contexts explored, a set of claims tends to prevail where the horizons of quality of life, justice, and the dispute for social recognition in a broad sense play a transversal role.
