Abstract

Este trabajo busca ampliar el conocimiento sobre las juventudes políticas durante la última apertura democrática. Para ello,se propone estudiar el Movimiento de Juventudes Políticas, una experiencia transversal que reunió a las juventudes de los principales partidos políticos del país entre 1983 y 1987. Con este objetivo, se intenta reconstruir las condiciones de emergencia del movimiento, identificar los espacios en los cuales se canalizó el activismo político juvenil para reconocer y comprender las ideas y las prácticas que nutrieron su cultura política.Tjis paper seeks to broaden knowledge about the political role of youth since the comeback of democracy in Argentina (after the dictatorship period). In order to do so, the paper proposes to study the role of youth in politics, a transversal experience that brought together the youth of the country's main political parties between 1983 and 1987. As a result, there is an attempt to reconstruct the emergency conditions of these historical facts. And also there is an attempt to identify how youth political activism was born, so as to be able to recognize, and understand which were the ideas and lines that turned the involvement of the youth in politics into one of the most salient features of today’s Argentinian political culture.
