Abstract
CHAPARRO-HURTADO, Héctor Rolando and GUZMAN-ARIZA, Claudia Maritza. The (multiple) centers of the sphere: Culture, youth and education as contemporary adventures. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2014, vol.12, n.2, pp.691-701. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.12212280814.
In this article, an associated product of the project "Practices and discourse of the youth‘s digital consumption in leisure spaces - Educational Lessons," we analyze the objectives of the project about how the new forms of identity are built and rebuilt in relation to the media culture in young, urban, schooled subjects in the city of Villavicencio (Colombia); and we revise the social and educational effects that result from the relation information/network society in the educational institutions. In the field work, we undertook exploratory tasks in the school and the Internet, from the observation, recording and being part of the young people‘s approaches to those spaces. Our proposal concludes that there are notably processes of youth subjectivization in which digital technologies enable new kinds of identification with themselves, with the environs and with the others, in an interrelation in which subjectivity, inter-subjective links and the historically constructed culture unfold, in a self constructed by a complex framework that poses a veritable challenge in light of the formative processes in knowledge societies.
