DEL CASTILLO, Alejandra Carolina. Trayectorias vitales de jóvenes en contextos de pobreza crítica. Un estudio en Gran San Miguel de Tucumán (Argentina). Poblac. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.2, pp.164-193. ISSN 1852-8562.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.19137/pys-2020-270208.

This article focuses on young people from areas of critical poverty in Gran San Miguel de Tucumán and seeks to inquire into their life paths. Faced with the difficulties of completing an education and the precarious insertion into the labour market, other experiences such as peer grouping, the use of neighbourhood public spaces and the consumption of psychoactive-substances gain significance. Open interviews with a deliberate sample of youngsters enabled us to identify and describe the dimensions that life trajectories acquire and to develop a typology of the latter.

Keywords : Young people; Critical poverty; Vital trajectories; Gran San Miguel de Tucumán.
