摘要:This paper presents the problem of school violence through a critical reading that allows rethinking the approach to school bullying. It proposes a critical psychosocial interactionist approach from a qualitative perspective focused on the reconstruction and understanding of the conflicts in coexistence in secondary schools in Argentina from the perspective of young people and educators. It focus the analysis on physical confrontations (“fights”) between students, which emerge in defined situations by the participants, and are defined as deep affronts to their identity and can be understood as recognition conflicts. Finally, it presents considerations around psychosocial intervention through participatory strategies with young people and educators to promote the deconstruction of the arguments that justify violence.
