Sumario:From the hegemonic discourse in Colombia it is valid until the policy manifests itself in the formal processes of participation directed to the political systems, to the point that the social problems of the country have been allowed. This is a way of knowing that there are other ways in which youths carry out policies that are not officially regulated, but respond to the dynamics of their practices that privilege the field of culture. Given this panorama, youth cultures must be analyzed as contemporary forms of organization, since, through cultural expressions, they show political positions in front of a determined social order. In this context, the sociological preoccupation of understanding the way in which the dramatization of collective identities (Reguillo, 2012) has been pertinent to youth organizations in the city of Barranquilla has arisen to put on the public scene the positions that, although they are not recognized as policies from the beginning, social change is considered as a priority in their agendas. How does the dramatization of the collective identities of The Hip Hop Jungle and Living Beings Crew in the Plaza de la Paz take place? What characteristics said identity elaborations? What political perspectives can we recognize in these cultural practices? This work allows us to understand the cultural practices of youth, no, no, be, be, as, devoid of positioning, on the contrary, we can recognize the political connotation of their expressions and thus, approach the aspects of contemporary youth politicization.
