Jóvenes rurales: exploraciones conceptuales y vivenciales en becarias/os universitarias/os

Abstract

espanolEl articulo realiza una exploracion conceptual y vivencial de jovenes rurales del programa de admision provincial de la Universidad Mayor de San Andres. Un primer acercamiento que se realiza es la revision conceptual de las definiciones de juventudes rurales, en la cual se retoma la perspectiva de la construccion sociocultural y la valorizacion como actores sociales. Un segundo aspecto es el referido a la migracion e identidades de jovenes rurales en donde se describe las principales perspectivas de estudio: la perdida de identidad y aculturacion, la autoidentificacion y afirmacion cultural, siendo este ultimo el que se presenta en el estudio realizado. Y el tercer aspecto aborda las construcciones sociodiscursivas desde las voces y trayectorias de jovenes rurales becarias/os sobre su identidad juvenil: “ser jovenes”; su identidad institucional-universitaria: “jovenes universitarios”; y su identidad etnica-cultural: “jovenes rurales e indigenas”, esta ultima evidencia que este grupo de jovenes becarios/as durante su transito por la universidad no pierde esta identidad, sino se afirma en relacion con su vinculo territorial, su cultura, sus lazos familiares y comunales. EnglishThe article makes a conceptual and experiential exploration of young people from the provincial admission program of the Universidad Mayor de San Andres (Higher University of San Andres). The first approach carried out is the conceptual revision of the definitions of youth, in which the perspective of the sociocultural construction and the valorization as social actors are retaken. A second aspect refers to migration and identities of youth, in which the main study perspectives are described: the loss of identity and acculturation, self-identification and cultural affirmation, the latter being presented in the study carried out. The third aspect addresses the socio-discursive constructions from the voices and trajectories of young scholarship holders about their youth identity: “being young”; their institutional-university identity: “young university students”; and their ethnic-cultural identity: rural and indigenous youth. The latter being the evidence that this group of young scholarship recipients do not lose their identity during their transit through the university, but rather affirms itself in relation to their territorial bond, their culture, and their family and community ties.
