Youth and Politics in Argentina [1968-2008]: Toward the Construction of a State of the Art

The paper presents a state-of-the-art of Argentine youth politics in the late 1960s -- between 1968-1969, related to the popular mobilization known as the Cordobazo -- & today's youth politics. The research focuses on education & the student movement, social movements, political parties, & trade unions, as well as cultural movements, & youth aesthetics. For each historical period, the article analyzes the most significant events, actions, practices, & problems explored by the existing academic research on the subject. At this point, this state-of-the-art does not include other discourses on Argentine youth (such as the media, or public policy). Far from ignoring such discourses or narratives of youth, this is a methodological approach at this early stage of the research. Adapted from the source document.
