ZARZURI C., Raúl  e  GANTER S., Rodrigo. Cultural twist and youth studies in contemporary Chile: crisis of hegemony, mediations and the challenges of a proposal. Ultima décad. [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.50, pp.61-88. ISSN 0718-2236.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-22362018000300061.

The cultural perspective, also called “cultural twist” in the studies on youngsters and youths in Chile, and the use of certain conceptual categories such as neotribalism or urban tribes, have been discussed since the beginning of the new century. In general, the criticism raised from such discussions have not been properly answered so far. The present article, hence, aims to provide them, pointing out the context leading to elaborate such proposal and its landmarks, in an attempt to balance the post-dictatorship neotribalism process in our country. Later, as stated, the concepts used to show those youth practices did not address a fascination effect but an effect of cultural and historical mediation that allowed a generational link, to conclude with hints on the performance of the culturalist perspective and its challenges.

Palavras-chave : young people; youth cultures; cultural twist; urban tribes.
