Abstract

The following article is an exploratory research on youth politicization towards political practices and discourses of liberal/ libertarian right-wing parties in the province of Mendoza during 2022. We delved into the profiles of young members and supporters of libertarian/liberal political parties, their militant commitments, and the process of political subjectivization. Data was collected through qualitative and quantitative research techniques. We concluded that participation within this political space in Mendoza has been crossed by a youth mark left by people from different social classes. In addition, it is stated as a strongly male-dominated space where young people are called upon by the notion of individual freedom and the discredit of progressive policies..
