LEITE, Miriam. Political activism and youth: turnstiles of the school and the city for the younger youth. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.49, pp.169-185. ISSN 0104-7043.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.v26.n49.169185.

The urban occupation movements in various parts of the world since the beginning of this decade were often associated with youth. However, the term youth is admittedly imprecise as age is concerned: were those attending the final years of elementary school included in this recognition of politics agency? In the context of the teaching strike of municipal public schools of Rio de Janeiro in 2013, we conducted interviews with teachers who participated in the movement, considering that their narratives could bring news of that recognition (or non-recognition). In a dialogue with theories of Jacques Derrida, Judith Butler and Leonor Arfuch, such as those of performativity, iteration, interpellation and narrative interview notions, we discuss about the texts produced on such meetings. We note in this reading besides the already supposed power of teacher’s interpellation, the strength of the city itself in favor or hindering the politics agency of the younger youth.
