This article analyses the role of Colombian youth in the 2021 National Strike at the sight of the social reconfiguration of political subjectivities and its impact on the ways of inhabiting cities as scenarios in dispute. Methodologically, the analysis arises from a discussion on spontaneity, as a proposal for the analysis of social mobilisation and its scope, articulated to the analytical triad of subalternity, antagonism, and autonomy. As a result, the shaping of the Colombian social movement develops in three moments that transform subjectivities: first, it reaffirms the subaltern condition of a youth that transforms its territoriality through new political subjectivities; second, it deepens the social antagonism that facilitates the continuity of a mobilisation that exceeds its initial agenda; third, it introduces autonomy as a practice and horizon of expectation that aims to transform the national project from the local level. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to encourage new reflections on the impact and configuration of political subjectivities based on the notion of spontaneity to understand the shaping of social mobilisation, the subaltern experience, and the reconfiguration of political subjectivities as a process of transition. Here young people dispute the public and political space while aspiring to overcome violence.
