BUNGENSTAB, Gabriel Carvalho. The presence of the term youth in the scientific production of brazilian Physical Education: where are we going?. Rev. Motriviv. [online]. 2020, vol.32, n.62, e67674.  Epub May 01, 2020. ISSN 2175-8042.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-8042.2020.e67674.

This article seeks to understand how the term “youth” is present in the Brazilian Physical Education (PE) scientific production. To answer this question, at first, the text presents the debate about the youth condition, discussing the presence of schooling projects in this area. Having done that, it performs a literature review, in terms of scientific articles, in the main journals in the field of Physical Education. From the results, it is noted that the participation of PE scientific field in the debate on the concept of youth is still incipient. However, the production of the field seems to understand that cultural and sports practices are fundamental for the understanding of youth sociability and for the constitution of the multiple identities of youth.
