Item Identidad, género y encierro en adolescentes en conflictos con la ley(2025) Pantoja Pay, Greys; Cárdenas Jiménez, Alejandra; Villa Molina, Yorlady; Alzate Velásquez, Natalia (Asesora)This article aims to analyze adolescent incarceration and symbolic exclusion, the formation of identity in adolescents under the custody of the (SRPA) Special Program for Adolescent Responsibility, and the construction of gender stereotypes in contexts of confinement. It highlights that these young individuals face significant disruptions that affect their development, due to the lack of positive relationships and the reproduction of violent male role models. The study is based on a documentary review of research published between 2018 and 2024, using a qualitative hermeneutic approach. An analytical review matrix was used to organize the information according to criteria such as language, year, and keywords. The results indicate that many of these adolescents have experienced social exclusion, lack of institutional support, and family problems, which directly impact their identity. In detention centers, rigid gender stereotypes are observed, where sensitivity is punished and masculinity is associated with control and violence. Based on these observations, it is concluded that the identity of young people is formed in connection with their environment, including institutions and social messages. The lack of freedom not only limits their physical movement but also affects their ability to understand and experience life independently.Item Impacto del machismo interiorizado en hombres entre 15 y 24 años(2025) Cáceres Ocoró, Emmanuel; Arrechea Caicedo, Kevin Johan; Espitia Laguna, María José; Alzate Velásquez, Natalia (Asesora)This study analyzes how internalized machismo affects young men between the ages of 15 and 24 in vulnerable contexts such as the communities of Cali. They face realities marked by poverty, violence, and social exclusion. Masculinity is constructed under traditional mandates that promote control, harshness, and emotional repression. This generates significant impacts on young people's emotional health and social relationships. A qualitative documentary review was conducted of 30 academic studies—10 local, 10 national, and 10 international—taken from databases such as Scielo, Redalyc, and Google Scholar. Keywords related to internalized machismo, masculinities, gender violence, and social representations were used. The documents were analyzed using a state-of-the-art matrix. The findings reveal that young men reproduce macho models due to social pressure, a lack of alternative role models, and as a protection mechanism in a host environment. However, experiences of change were also identified. Some young people are beginning to question these models through community, educational, and artistic spaces. It is concluded that transforming masculinities requires a collective intervention through social work with institutional, community, and pedagogical support. Reflecting on internalized machismo at this sensitive stage of a young person's life is necessary to build more equitable relationships, prevent gender-based aggression, and foster a more empathetic and emotionally diverse society.
