SHABEL, Paula Nurit. "A Children´s meeting": Constructions of children s knowledge about politics in a social movement. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2019, n.49, pp.163-178. ISSN 1850-275X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/cas.i49.4022.

The political changes taken place in the last decades in Argentina brought about new strategies in the organization and struggles of the popular sectors, which entailed the mobilization of entire families to a picket, to housing cooperatives or to the demonstration to the plaza. Since then, thousands of children began to participate daily in political practices upon which they build knowledge. Drawing on ethnographic work developed in collective housing of a social movement in the city of Buenos Aires, I examine what children understand by politics, while they produce their own collective actions, opening up an intergenerational power dispute over space. Clinical-critical interviews were also be used to reconstruct their notions, as I assume these subjects do not simplify what adults think, but they elaborate their own meanings, always related to their social and material contexts.
