VASQUEZ, Melina. Between the mobilization and the state: Participative policies of youth in contemporary Argentina. Ultima décad. [online]. 2015, vol.23, n.43, pp.163-206. ISSN 0718-2236.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-22362015000200007.

Based on a sociohistorical perspective, the present article tackles the participative dimension driving state regulations in Argentina, from the 80s and the creation of youth national organizations, to the present days and the exploration of the sociological conditions ensuring a revitalized participation in driving youth public policies. Likewise, a wide spectrum of aspects concerning participation leading to the application of public youth policies are analyzed, taking into account the perspectives of the different actors and groups involved in its design and implementation. The document thus, is an invitation to reflect on characteristic paradoxes of the current Argentinian context, by means of an analysis of the links between sociopolitical mobilization of youths, State and public policies.
