Grouping forms and political practices of contemporary young people in Bogotá

Abstract

This article is aimed to analyze the particular relationship forms among someBogotá juvenile groups from which they make some proposals partially out ofthe control of the state, or institutions or political parties. It also deals with themeeting process and the kind of connections they establish regarding somespecific activities, forms of structuring and gathering, the way in which thisaction is continued to form some nets allowing them to make free room for theirown activities or rather to choose conventional ones that form sedimentations. Agroup is supposed to be in a state of permanent constitution since it does nothave a complete “identity”, but tends to keep its own singularity and specificcharacteristics.
