DESCRIPTION:In the last decade a double distrust concerning yo
 uth has become apparent: a social disbelief in the
  contributions that young people in the ‘lost gene
 ration’ might have to offer to society\; and young
  people’s own disbelief in their constantly-postpo
 ned future. This mutual disbelief has become stron
 ger since the economic downturn\, and urgently req
 uires attention.  In particular the lives of disen
 franchised young people from border\, interior and
  rural regions needs further research.   This pres
 entation will present findings from an ethnographi
 c study carried out in 2010 - 2011 (and continued 
 online) in a village\, Bemposta\, located in the P
 ortuguese inlands\, close to the Spanish border.  
 It will reveal whether or not these young people a
 re cooling their expectations\, or if they are cha
 llenging their communities and geographies\, throu
 gh proposing new youth cultures. What type of chal
 lenges are these young people making? Are their co
 mmunities capable of answering these challenges? W
 hat do these communities expect from young people?
