Jeunes de la rue, amitié, itinérance, résilience, néolibéralisme, CanadaRésumé
Dans le discours public, les amitiés entre jeunes de la rue sont souvent considérées comme des sources de comportement délinquant ou de comportement à risque. Sur la base d'entrevues menées avec des jeunes de la rue à Victoria (Colombie-Britannique), les auteurs explorent comment les jeunes conçoivent leurs amitiés. Leur analyse suggère que les jeunes interviewés se sont créé un « refuge relationnel », à savoir un espace social et un chez-soi métaphorique constitués à travers la confiance, la proximité et le partage d'émotions et de ressources. L'étude met en lumière la façon dont les amitiés peuvent compenser certains aspects néfastes de la vie de rue pour les jeunes, en favorisant des formes et des pratiques collectives de réciprocité, d'acceptation et de collaboration généralisées.
