Abstract

The academic production on youth in Chile is growing, although it is not necessarily framed in an institutionalized field of study, with ongoing discussions between researchers and public dissemination of its work. Hence in this article proposes a set of initial coordinates that can bring about a state of the art on the subject, as a key step in evaluating the knowledge produced and the potential legitimacy and institutionalization of academic and disciplinary policy in this area of study which defines the concern to youth.
