Resumen
MENDOZA-ZAPATA, Rossana. Being young, Andean and Quechua and both near and far from communities of origin. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.2, pp.146-175. Epub 12-Ago-2022. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.20.2.4697.
This study asks how "young people" from the Quechua communities in Southern Peru construct “being young” in contexts involving neocolonial / neoliberal imposition and, at the same time, of acts of resistance both near and far from their places of origin. It was carried out using a decolonial position through the Participatory Action Research methodology adapted to the worlds of “young people” in the communities of Apurímac, Huancavelica and Ayacucho. The research identified that these young people are affected by impositions from Peruvian society, as government services and public policies project a homogeneous and hegemonic way of being young that tends to distance them from their families and communities. An upbringing based on their worldview will be the source of their resistance and will allow them to recover their roots through native language and Andean spirituality.
