Although the basically urban character of these associations is defended, it discusses to the relevance of the application of the concepts of “urban tribe” and “youth culture” in cultural scenes like the represented ones in societies that have undergone a fast transition to a modernity imposed by the transnational networks. In this sense, the objective is the refining of those conceptual tools offering a new perspective of which it considers the historical and social peculiarities of the construction of “young” the social category in other places. Finally, the text tries to vindicate the Anthropology like an empirical and non a priori discipline. A partir de una experiencia de campo en cuatro barrios de la ciudad de El Cairo, el autor traza una reflexión y hace un replanteamiento de las metodologías tradicionales instituidas para la investigación entre grupos generacionales en contextos occidentales. Aunque se defiende el carácter básicamente urbano de estas asociaciones, se discute la pertinencia de la aplicación de los conceptos de “tribu urbana” y “cultura juvenil” en escenarios culturales como los representados en sociedades que han sufrido una transición rápida a una modernidad impuesta por las redes transnacionales. En este sentido, el objetivo es la afinación de esas herramientas conceptuales ofreciendo una nueva perspectiva de las mismas que tenga en cuenta las peculiaridades históricas y sociales de la construcción de la categoría social “joven” en otros lugares. Por último, el texto intenta reivindicar a la antropología como una disciplina empírica y no apriorística. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/2731 10.34096/cas.i31.2731 spa Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/CAS/article/view/2731/2367 Cuadernos de antropología social; Núm. 31 (2010): 25 aniversario de la creación de la Sección de Antropología Social; 121-143 1850-275X 0327-3776 Cultura juvenil Tribu urbana El Cairo Globalización Metodología Youth culture Urban tribes Cairo Globalization Methodology Young people of other worlds: Urban tribes?
