Abstract

ROLDAN, Macarena. Juvenicide in Córdoba (Argentina) and Bio-resistance Strategies in Collective Youth Action. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.161, pp.47-65.  Epub Nov 19, 2020. ISSN 2448-7554.  https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v40i161.659.

This article aims to characterize the procedures of police abuse and systematic harassment that affect young people from popular sectors in Córdoba as processes of juvenicide in three dimensions: symbolic, moral and physical. At the same time, the Marcha de la Gorra is examined as a collective action that allows the construction of bio-resistance strategies that enable opposition to regimes of daily oppression, and that place participants’ bodies as the main locus of realization. Both topics are pondered based on the discourse of the young people who participated in the March. The construction of these data forms part of a qualitative study based on ethnographic recording techniques, participant observation, “conversations-in-march”, and in-depth interviews.

Keywords : Collective action; bio-resistance; juvenicide; police harassment; Marcha de la Gorra.
