Subjectification processes of high school students as subjects of sexual rights

Abstract

This article refers to the subjectification process of high school students in the University of Guadalajara as subjects of sexual rights. The paper shows the construction of the term ‘subject of sexual rights’. The data presented here are part of a wider study that explored the comprehensive process of this subjectification. It presents both the meanings that students attribute to sexuality and to youth, and also includes the elements of the curriculum that contribute to this subjectification. Our research was guided by a qualitative methodology, and the instruments for data collection were interviews and documentary reviews. The results indicate that the meanings are hybrids in which different discourses converge.
