Abstract

This article originates from the question «How to understand the emergence of youth citizenship practices that widely use the Internet?» Regarding methodology, a qualitative approach -with semistructured interviews, participant observation, and the review of the websites and social networks of the selected groups- was used. The result is a fabric composed of five threads: urban, institutional, epistemic, political, and technological threads. The main conclusions are the claim for the right to the city, the crisis of the classical formal places of modernity, the rise of different ways of organizing, groups that produce and validate knowledge, movements trying different ways of being together, and contextualized and critical appropriations of technology.
