ROVIRA-RUBIO, Rayén Amanda e LEON-SAAVEDRA, Patricia Elizabeth. Youth condition in times of war: Stories from Colombian rurality (1995-2005). Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.3, pp.1-24. Epub 25-Nov-2021. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.19.2.4433.
This article analyzes the implications of war in the configuration of rural youth in Colombia in La Merced, Caldas and Vista Hermosa, Meta. It describes qualitative research that uses a narrative approach to analyze the experiences of three survivors of violence between 1995 and 2005 through the telling of significant events that occurred during their youth. The results show that the war established specific life courses for rural youth, such as growing coca leaf and being a member of armed groups. These transitions demonstrate how their capacity to pursue possible life paths outside the frame-work of war were restricted, but also highlight life paths involving resistance to the war that were linked to collective action with other young people.
