RAMIREZ-DOMINGUEZ, Claudia Elizabeth  y  CRUZ-SALAZAR, Tania. Youth Emotions and Affections regarding their Experiences at the Universidad Intercultural de Chiapas (UNICH). LiminaR [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp.168-186. ISSN 2007-8900.  https://doi.org/10.29043/liminar.v17i1.653.

The aim of this paper is to show that young people’s educational experience at the Intercultural University of Chiapas (UNICH) is unequal, violent, and conflictive, thus negatively affecting students’ emotions. Far from the intercultural education project promoting dialog and equal relationships, the university experience actually demobilizes students, pits them against one another, drives them away from community values, and encourages individualism. Our approach focused on subjectivity in pedagogy, using the categories of experiences and emotions. Our fieldwork demonstrated how the university, as an educational space, does not help to create or reproduce sociocultural integration, but rather promotes, at a very subjective level, perhaps unwittingly, conflict and disappointment.
