RUIZ SILVA, Alexander. Young people on the margins and their moral sense about history. []. , 36, pp.153-169. ISSN 0123-4870.

Abstract This paper is part of a blend of approaches and theories from practical philosophy and teaching and learning research related to history. It highlights and analyses stories of Argentine youth from a marginal social context about their current nation and the relation between a lived (daily) history and a learned (academic-disciplinary) history. The analysis indicates, among other things, a defensive narrative construction of a nation where young people do not have a close link to their own past or future projections, so much so that nation borders seem to be in tension between illusion and uncertainty. The more the spectrum of the latter is amplified, the more the first seems to be reduced.
