Reconfigurations of the elites and socio-state productions of the youth in Argentina (2015-2019)

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the transformations in the socio-state work with the youth after the appointment of Mauricio Macri as chief of State. The article is centered in the study of the youth national area in order to explore 1) the change of profile in officers and workers, the ways they join the State, the knowledge and capitals they hold and appeal to in order to legitimize their role as public servants, and 2) the design and management of the youth public policies in the area, the ways of working, the network of institutions and actors in motion and the main youth figures emerging from these institutions.
