Many cultural events that happen in the city - with little visibility in the school - have young people as their main participants. Young people create their own spaces of socialization which become culturally expressive territories where different identities develop. Culture manifests itself as a privileged space of social practices, representations, symbols and rituals. The production of identities not only demarcates areas of social and collective practices but brings into play the common interests that gives meaning to ”being together” and being part of a group. Spaces of autonomy are outlined in juvenile cultural territories. These spaces conquered by young people allow them to turn those same environments redefining them from their own specific practices. The article presents and discusses contemporary social and cultural processes that produce the so-called youth culture and intends to draw attention to the necessary recognition of these processes by the school. Youth cultural groups are crucial for the socialization of high school students who, as well as being students, are also subjects in other cultural spaces and temp’s of the city.
