Resumen
ARANCIBIA, Milena. Trabajo y vivienda: la relación entre inserción laboral y autonomía habitacional: Un estudio sobre las trayectorias de jóvenes en el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires. Estud. trab. [online]. 2017, n.53. ISSN 0327-5744.
Nowadays, leaving the parental home is one of the main events in the transition from youth to adulthood. Throughout the last decades, the youth period has been extended, as difficulties in finding a stable job and getting access to housing delayed youth independence and autonomy. The paper offers an in-depth analysis of the aforementioned changes in young adults’ trajectories in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, in the period 1999-2013. The study is based on the concept of youth as a life stage that include two transitions: from studying to work and from living in the parental home to having their own home. Ideally, when young people access to the labor market, they acquire economic independence and when they leave their parental home they acquire residential autonomy. However, recent changes in the labor market and urban transformations made housing autonomy increasingly difficult. This paper studies housing strategies of young people, focusing on resources, mobility motivations as well as future expectations regarding types of tenancy agreements. The results show that although labor trajectories influence housing strategies, they do not necessarily mean a gateway to an upward housing trajectory. The study is based on 30 in-depth interviews to young people from different social class backgrounds, using a biographical research method.
