AMADOR-BAQUIRO, Juan Carlos. Youth, temporality and visual narratives in the Colombian armed conflict. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.2, pp.1313-1329. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.14229080915.

The article presents the results of a study that analyzed the social construction of time in the context of the Colombian armed conflict with young people participating in a community film and video festival in Ciudad Bolívar (Bogota). Based on the idea that time is a regulator that allows individuals and groups to synthesize, integrate and coordinate with the social world, the methodology used for the study was to engage in the cultural analysis of visual products circulating in the festival (videos, documentaries and films), based on the assumption that these products highlighted the social, ethical and aesthetic temporalities of young people’s life worlds. The results of the study show that three groups of youth temporalities are highlighted in the analysis: the carnival and polyphonic temporalities in diversity; the temporalities of grief, fear and condemnation; and subaltern history and memories.

Keywords : Youth; temporality; visual narratives; armed conflict; memory.
