MARGINALIDAD Y VIOLENCIA JUVENIL EN MEDELLÍN Y BOGOTÁ: NARRATIVAS LITERARIAS Y FÍLMICAS DE LOS AÑOS 80 Y 90 EN COLOMBIA.
Doctoral Dissertation, University of Pittsburgh.
(Unpublished)
Abstract
I framed my Dissertation in the new discussions developed in Colombia, Argentina, Spain, Brazil and Mexico about the socio-cultural place of young people in the transformations of modernity. I am studying Colombian narratives about violence related to youth cultural identities, practices and communication in two specific socio-cultural marginal environments in marginal neighborhoods of Bogotá and Medellín. I comprehend narratives about violence to be a group of works (novels, chronics, testimonies, documentaries, and fiction films) related to the violent urban reality of the 80's and 90's in Colombia. These narratives determine positions and experiences that reveal imaginaries, sensibilities and identities of contemporary young people, understanding young people as social actors that have been sub-estimated. I also ask about how young practices and experiences refer also to global transformations regarding experiences of gender, sexuality, survival, religiosity, consumption of goods and violence.
