| Sumario: | This paper analyses the recent evolution of transnational youth street groups in the cities of Barcelona and Madrid (Spain) in the last two decades, with special focus in the Latin Kings and Queens group and based on the definitions and uses of the terms borders, peripheries and mediation. Our data presents part of the preliminary ethnographic results of the research carried on from 2019 until mid-2021 and focuses on the comparison of the current situation of the groups in both cities, attending to factors as internal structure, link to the territory and their position in the social space. In order to do this, we pay attention to the differences in the groups and the mediation processes in which they are implied, either internal or external, considering the possibilities of both natural and formal mediation. |
