PIERO, Emilia Di. Teachers’ views of young people as «undesirable others» in university secondary schools in La Plata. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp.269-283. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.17116.
In this paper we present conclusions from a doctoral research study focusing on the analysis of the views of teachers in two university secondary schools in La Plata (Argentina) of the young people they teach. These are prestigious schools that changed their admissions process from the results-based exam to a public lottery, with the idea of returning to the democratic institutional approaches used in Argentina in the 1980s. The methodological approach started with a multiple case study: between 2012 and 2016 the researcher engaged in observations, interviewed 13 «key» actors and 67 teachers and analysed meeting records related to the change in the admissions process, as well as sociodemographic information of the enrolled students. The author concludes that the rhetoric, tinged with melancholy, for the education processes from the past also includes a longing for the «youth of yesterday». In the views of teachers, this «educational decadence» is affected by their disappointment with today’s youth.
