Abstract

This article explores the transitions to adulthood of young people from Montevideo and its metropolitan area from a qualitative approach. It highlights the need for a typology to reflect the diversity of biographical experiences through a theoretical approach on precarization of social ties, and analyzes the influence of material inequities in youth transitions. Youth, from this perspective, is considered a double process of experience and transition. The objective of the article is to develop a typology that allows gaining a deeper understanding of the transition process from youth to adulthood in different social contexts.
