LARRONDO, Marina. Participation and schooling politics: Reflections over politics in school. Universitas [online]. 2017, n.26, pp.109-134. ISSN 1390-8634.  https://doi.org/10.17163/uni.n26.2017.04.

In the following article we intend to reflect and discuss the conceptual link between youth, school and politics. We will focus on the student´s participative practices and the political conditions in middle schools. Our perspective integrates concepts which originate in the political theory and sociology of education. The latter will be the starting point from where we will discuss the difference between politics and political in the school context, while we consider the school as a specific institution. We set an interpretative hypothesis about the “scholarisation of politics” based on the complex relationship between two worlds in tension: the political and the middle school worlds. Lastly, we ask ourselves if every form of participation and politization has the same potential to describe and empirically interpret the aim of this study, but also for the protection and broadening of youth rights.

Keywords : Participation; politics; middle school; apparatus; youth.
