VERA-ALVAREZ, Nicolás  e  RIQUELME-SANDOVAL, Sandra. Cultural tensions in migrant adolescents living in Chile. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.1, pp.328-348.  Epub 16-Mar-2022. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.20.1.5079.

Contemporary migration patterns have significantly challenged the role of parenting in transnational families. Faced with this scenario, this study enquires about the cultural tensions faced by migrant adolescents through their meanings, deconstructing adultcentered logics that have made them invisible as subjects. This study included the participation of migrant adolescents from Colombia, Haití and Venezuela whose families are living in Chile. Following the indepth interviews, an analysis was carried out using a constructivist approach. The main results highlighted the cultural tensions experienced by adolescents in both individual and family spheres of life. Within their families, they high-lighted cultural differences in terms of educational styles and cultural openness. The adolescents deploy different resolution and/or coping mechanisms, such as integration, resistance and exclusion.
