%X this text reflects about some constructions that have been made regarding the political participation of chilean youth. the study indicates, that, more than a disenchantment with politics, there is a disenchantment with a certain way of constructing politics in chile, which has no connection with the daily life of the subjects. in this light, the study argues that youth have always had or constructed spaces for participation, and in these, they have attempted to reconstruct participation as well as citizenship, stretching the traditional definitions of these concepts. therefore, certain obligations that the government has tried to install, such as automatic inscription in the electoral registries or the obligatory vote, will not lead to greater participation if they have no meaning for young people.
