This article analyzes the social discourses of university students who participate in different types of organizations, with the purpose of studying their characteristics as a
political generation. The research was carried out through a deliberate sample, using
discussion groups as a technique to produce information, analyzing the data collected
through a discourse approach. The results show that there are three repertories from
which young individuals refer to themselves: “We as university students”, “We as an
organization” and “We as heirs”. In the discussion, it is proposed that these three
repertories are articulated in a common generational narration, which gives sense to
them, and define them as protagonists of a “fearless generation”.
