Abstract
This research article identifies the conceptions that young people from secondary school in rural areas construct about the government, analyzed from the theory of social representations and from the socioeconomic variables of the context in which they are immersed. This bases its objectives on describing the influence that the aforementioned variables exert on the way in which young people conceive the role of government and its role in the construction of citizenship. The present research is oriented from a non-experimental, transectional descriptive methodology, based on a postpositivist paradigm, using a type of intentional or convenience sampling. The results showed that among young people there is a high degree of mistrust and lack of credibility towards the government and its leaders and as a conclusion it is considered that this trend is due to the relationship between corruption, government levels and the individual interests of some rulers.
