description | Forced recruitment in Colombia, as a social reality that affects the youth, fulfils several conditions defined within the category of juvenicide. This article provides a series of reflections for-mulated on the basis of voices of four young victims of this harsh reality; their testimonies exhibit the enduring relation-ship between social inequality, vulnerability and poverty as fac-tors that precede such form of victimization within the armed conflict’s context. Finally, the authors identify different aspects of armed life that serve as an environment for juvenicide from a particular segment of the population, particularly, the poor young people who are socially excluded and lack resources to build and live their lives apart from violence. |

This article provides a series of reflections for-mulated on the basis of voices of four young victims of this harsh reality; their testimonies exhibit the enduring relation-ship between social inequality, vulnerability and poverty as fac-tors that precede such form of victimization within the armed conflict’s context. Finally, the authors identify different aspects of armed life that serve as an environment for juvenicide from a particular segment of the population, particularly, the poor young people who are socially excluded and lack resources to build and live their lives apart from violence. El reclutamiento forzado en Colombia, como hecho social que afecta a amplios sectores de la juventud cumple varias condiciones enmarcadas dentro de la categoría del juvenicidio. El artículo plantea varias reflexiones a partir de las voces de cuatro jóvenes víctimas de este hecho, quienes con sus testimonios reflejan la relación persistente entre desigualdad social, vulnerabilidad y pobreza, como factores que anteceden a esta forma de victimización en el marco del conflicto armado. Por último, identifica distintos aspectos de la vida armada que sirven de escenario para el juvenicidio de un particular fragmento de esta población: jóvenes pobres, excluidos socialmente y sin recursos para construir proyectos de vida alternos a la violencia. O recrutamento forçado na Colômbia, como um fato social que afeta amplos setores da juventude, cumpre várias condi-ções enquadradas dentro da categoria de juvenicídio. O artigo apresenta uma série de reflexões baseadas nas vozes de quatro jovens vítimas desse fato, que com seus testemunhos refletem a persistente relação entre desigualdade social, vulnerabilidade e pobreza, como fatores que antecedem essa forma de vitimi-zação no marco do conflito armado. Finalmente, são identifica-dos diferentes aspectos da vida armada que servem de cenário para o juvenicídio de um fragmento particular dessa popula-ção: jovens pobres, socialmente excluídos e sem recursos para construir projetos de vida alternativos à violencia.
