Abstract
TORRE DIAZ, Alejandra de la. Subjectivity in Social Mobility. Meanings and Emotions Around Education and Work for Rural Youth. Nóesis, Rev. cienc. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.58, pp.171-188. Epub Jan 16, 2023. ISSN 2395-8669. https://doi.org/10.20983/noesis.2020.2.8.
Rural Mexican youth are facing very particular conditions in rural environments whose fundamental feature is a multiple occupation of activities in different economy sectors and greater possibilities of access to high elementary education. This article is the result of a research that analyzed education and work strategies of rural youth. 23 young men and women were interviewed at three locations from the Ciénega region in Jalisco: Atequiza, Zapotlán del Rey and Mezcala de la Asunción. The text presented here explores the subjective dimension (symbolic and emotional processes) that underlay in young people strategies. It is argued that the ways of social mobility for young people are related both to subjective processes and to structural conditions imposed by a given social environment
