In line with the philosophy of the Center for Global Nonkilling, the book offers conceptual elements and categories of analysis to understand the incidence of different forms of violence in the construction of identities and daily realities of young people in Cali and Medellin in Colombia. It also offers a perspective of propositional analysis as an option to analyze and make young people visible as actors and authors of artistic, sports, cultural and political experiences and strategies for the construction of peace and peaceful coexistence in multiple scenarios. All of this is based on the hypothesis that young people are the last link in a chain of violence but not its cause.<\/p>\n

The book is composed of two parts and 9 chapters containing a theoretical, conceptual and contextual reference. The first part refers to a general context of the problem of youth violence, the concept of youth and young people, restorative justice in young populations, and the concept of pro sociality, psychosocial skills and competencies. The second part shows different categories of analysis based on the experience of field work with very particular tendencies at the level of: corporealities and resistance to violence; the experience of the youth context and the demands and conflictive relationships with adult and institutional referents; gender and youth sexuality; coexistence and peace building, and finally a methodological section of the research process that gave rise to the book.<\/p>\n
