Resumen
DUKUEN, Juan. Youth political socialization in a school for upper classes (Buenos Aires-Argentina). Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.2, pp.867-880. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.16215.
This article presents findings of a research on youth political socialization in a private school of British tradition for upper classes in the City of Buenos Aires, about a specific practice of school government: elections for school captains. From a fieldwork carried out between 2016 and 2017 that included interviews, participant observation and document analysis, this paper analyzes the letters of nomination of candidates to captains in order to elucidate the meaning that students give to this practice of school representation. Highlight that leadership, communication skills and antiquity, constitute the senses attributed to the captaincies. It is concluded by relating them to broader processes of youth political socialization in the upper classes, which lead to future lines of research.
