NAPOLI, Pablo Nahuel di  and  RICHTER, Nicolás Carlos. Reconfiguration of school experiences of young people from popular groups based on the institutional marks of high schools. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2019, vol.14, n.3, pp.1138-1161.  Epub Oct 16, 2019. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.14n3.019.

In this article, we analyze the traces left by high school in the subjectivity of the young people who studied there. Based on a sociology of experience and individuation analysis, guided by Dubet’s and Martuccelli’s works respectively, we start with the question about which are the institutional events that they consider most significant in their biographies. The focus of the analysis is placed on three main axes categorized as institutional marks: the linkages between young students and their role models; the school-neighborhood relation; and the feeling of belonging to the institution. Additionally, some inflections are proposed in the tension between the categories of subjectivity and identity, within the framework of the reconfiguration of youth agencies of popular groups. We work with students and referents from two popular high school institutions and a confessional school located in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, Argentina, whose biographical accounts were reconstructed through semi-structured interviews.

Keywords : Students; High school; Subjectivity.
