CALVO SAN JUAN, A., 2023. Multiple, liquid, insatiable and for sale bodies: notes on sexuality and equality among adolescents in Salamanca and its province. Con-ciencia social: Segunda Época, no. 6, pp. 135-150. ISSN 2605-0641
This article reflects on prevention work performed through activities and workshops on affective-sexual education with adolescents in Salamanca and its province, inside and outside the classroom. The research probes the following questions: What do they know about sexuality? Do they feel more sexual freedom? How do they formulate desire? What role do patriarchy and feminism play in this formulation? In addition, how capitalist socialisation influences the construction of their subjectivities. These interventions help to think about how we develop sexuality and its dynamics in a socio-economic system from which we construct the meanings of what surrounds us and in which the issue of gender is key. Within this framework, social media, pornography, the cult of the image and its hypersexualisation or the lack of affective-sexual education constitute a significant part of the context in which we develop our sexuality.
JIMÉNEZ ALVAREZ, M.G., 2022. Transition to adulthood and social and labour market integration of young people who have migrated independently. Mediterráneo económico, no. 36, pp. 369-379. ISSN 1698-3726
This article reflects on the transition to adult life and the key role that social mentoring can play in the socio-occupational support process for young foreigners. More specifically, this article refers to young people who migrated independently and arrived in Spain when they were still minors and were placed in the care of the protection system because they did not have a family or a support network. We begin with a brief overview of the movements of these adolescents and what they imply, and then we explore the transition process to adulthood as a critical stage in every young person's life. The article describes the specificity of being young foreigners formerly placed in care and their difficulties. Finally, we look in depth at mentoring as an instrument of support in the labour market and provide some final reflections.
ROS, C., NÚÑEZ HERNÁNDEZ, R. and BENEDETTO, V., 2022. Tensions and continuities with the entrepreneurial model in young workers in AMBA. Revista del Centro de Estudios de Sociología del Trabajo, no. 14, pp. 3-29. ISSN 1852-494X, 1852-4648
The sweeping changes in the " labour market" and employment, driven by neo-liberal ideology, have made paid work an increasingly scarce commodity, increasing unemployment and - in contrast - intensifying work among those with jobs. Likewise, recruitment and hiring methods have changed, resulting in the logic of employability, not as an attribute of the market but of individuals, who become entrepreneurs of themselves (entrepreneurability). New production and organisational technologies change work scenarios in new ways (platform economy, techno-surveillance, etc.) and transform the space-time coordinates within which the experience of work takes place. This article addresses, on the basis of material from an ongoing research project, the meanings that work assumes in the life project of young workers who define themselves as entrepreneurs, its existing or non-existent centrality, as well as how the current neoliberal organisation of work is reconfiguring the work experience under conditions of informal employment or self-employment.
