Abstract
CALDERON-VELEZ, Milton Leonel. Youth in resistance: educating for a hermeneutical community. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.2, pp.1141-1151. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.13241210514.
This descriptive article addresses the problem of young people in educational spaces given that school is an important place as a "world" in the lives of young people. The study identifies that in this space students express different ways of resistance to adult-centered society as subjects in biopolitical conditions. As a prelude it presents a real situation that occurred in Ecuador, and from there discusses several concepts that explain the actions of adults within school spaces. The author proposes the construction of a "community of meaning" that considers new perspectives for the category of "youth" and enables the search for consensus between the adult world, which guides the school, and students’ own subjectivities.
Keywords : youth; biopower; biopolitics; bioculture; bioresistance; hermeneutical community.
