The generation gap grows wider because young people are continually recreating their identity and developing ways of seeing the world that are shaped by connectivity and risk, further distancing themselves from the adult world. All this translates into various forms of discrimination against young people and into the stigmatization of youth (ECLAC/OU, 2008). Several studies have pointed out that the frustrations felt by young men as a result of unemployment often give rise to illness, increased violence among youth gangs, interpersonal conflict and domestic violence. Among women, unemployment leads to greater economic dependence on men, which in turn can lead to increased violence against women (Moser and van Bronkhorst, 1999). The social exclusion that unemployed young people experience every day, in a context of mass consumption, accounts for a structural dimension to violence that affects young people in the economic sphere. Indeed, there appears to be some consensus that what young people receive as structural violence they return as social violence (De Roux, 1993).
