IBARRA ESPINOSA, Manuel Leonardo. Social representations about drug violence in young university students in the State of Mexico. Psicumex [online]. 2021, vol.11, e403.  Epub 23-Ago-2021. ISSN 2007-5936.  https://doi.org/10.36793/psicumex.v11i1.403.

The proposed study represents a structural problem within Mexican society: drug violence and its more forceful forms of expression embodied in various artifacts of coalition. As it relates to this study, narcoviolence and its social representations have certain peculiarities that can be examined in the ever increasing, omnipresent discourse of the acts of young people. The methodology used was qualitative, participatory, comprehensive, and interpretive based on in-depth interview techniques, which brought us to the direct knowledge of the social reality of the interviewee, not mediated by conceptual or operational definitions, nor filtered by measurement instruments with high degree of structuring. The most notable results are linked to the knowledge of the social representations of corruption, arrogance, and impunity. As well as cyber-drug violence as a technological artifact of the concretion of fear. The relationship between worship, religiosity and moral ambiguity and drug trafficking, deterritorialization and rupture of the community sense, among others.

Palavras-chave : Social representations; drug violence; university students; municipality of Nezahualcóyotl; narratives.
