ZAFRA, Gloria  e  LOPEZ-ROCHA, Ma. Magdalena. Impacts of migration in youth: San Juan Guelavía. agric. soc. desarro [online]. 2009, vol.6, n.1, pp.129-144. ISSN 1870-5472.

This article, which is a byproduct of a broader research, is an approach at how the actions of young people, affected by migration or by urbanization, are producing tension and challenges in the community life and their traditional cultural systems and political organization. As a group in the population, they have been excluded because the notion of young citizens, in some indigenous communities that are ruled by the system of customs and practices, is still fiction; this situation is translating into the presence and rise of violent juvenile gangs, teen pregnancies, alcoholism and drug addiction.

Palavras-chave : Gender; indigenous peoples; youth; migration.
