Abstract
This paper builds on research aimed at understanding how young adults construct citizenship and how they interpret educational policies. The nodal point is constructing femininities and masculinities within school, the family and the public arena, as permeable locations to the construction of citizenship. I argue that the lack of dialogue with young adults may lead them to develop non-reflective thought which, in turn, may foster the reproduction of social order, whereas dialogue may have opposite tendencies. This work is theoretically informed by the epistemological-methodological feminist and critical emancipatory traditions combined with the claim for democratic pedagogic rights and equality of condition as pillars for recognition and informed choice. The qualitative interpretivist approach is supported on focus group discussion and individual interviews.
