Resumen
LEMUS*, Magdalena. Staring at the others: inclusion and pessimism on Connecting Equality Programme assessments. Trab. soc. [online]. 2019, n.33, pp.251-260. ISSN 1514-6871.
In this paper we analyze how teenagers from the upper-middle class understand privilege and deprivation. In order to understand how they value access and use of digital technologies and their views on inequalities, we interviewed high school students from La Plata (Buenos Aires province, Argentina) and asked them their opinions on Programa Conectar Igualdad.
Our findings show that young people have different opinions on Connecting Equality Programme and the people who benefit from it. While some value positively the Programme, others consider it to be a waste of money and an inefficient strategy to diminish inequalities. Youth opinions are linked to how they value digital technologies in their own lives but are also linked to with their opinions and expectations on public policies and politicians. Finally, this paper aims to contribute to the study of public policies by highlighting the multiple ways in which they are received by different people.
