Abstract

This article tries to reveal the underlying discourses on sexualities and citizenships at the back of the Plans and Programs of Sexual Education and Construction of Citizenship in Colombia since Nineties. To do this we reviewed the discursive productions with regard to these issues in order to determine the aspects of these chains of meaning –premises, statements, concepts and vocabulary– that are in favor of discipline and control of the bodies and behaviors. Beyond the advantages that these programs support, this article focuses the discourses that come behind and that directly affect the processes of construction of youthful subjectivities.
