Communication in Youth’s Living Worlds

This paper shows some important conceptual and methodological elements that emerge from the doctoral thesis entitled the same way.  It is focus in the live stories and interviews of young people in Bogotá, Cali and Manizales, who talk from their daily and vital experience.  These social narratives of subjects, who speaks in first person, about their historic common experiences, are the raw material of the field we called Communication-Culture.  Three sceneries which go far form the informational model, are drawn from these knowledges: body, understood as the space of the reciprocal affectation produced in the esthetic scope; collective interactions, which propose a "we" ethic; and the building of city (it will be better to say citizenship), when they talk about territories as public politic practices.
