Sumario:The present work analyses the militant world through the study of the militant career by taking upHoward Becker’s career perspective. The objective is to give an account of how this world is constructedand developed through the experiences of militants from different spaces of political participation.In this way, it proposes to investigate the shared logics of the militants of the province of Jujuy, Argentina,from understanding the way in which they interact beyond their space or sphere of belonging, takingup again a microstructural perspective. The aim is to understand contemporary militancy by overcomingthe limitations of macro-structural studies, mainly by accepting that there is currently a diversityof forms and spaces of militancy, which breaks with the borders of the more structural and traditionalmilitancy of parties and unions. To achieve these objectives, a longitudinal analysis of the trajectories of five militants from different spaces of political participation in Argentina was carried out, considering the subjective and objective aspects based on the narrative of the militants themselves through the use of the life story technique. This work allows us to give an account of the analytical contribution of the “militant world” to expose the continuities and ruptures, as well as the generalities and particularities of contemporary militancy in Argentina.
