ABSTRACT

Discrimination has been seen as one of many forms of exclusion to which they are subjected minority groups in our society. This phenomenon also can be studied as a trigger of violence or as an expression of violence experienced by individuals. This study aimed to explore the forms of discrimination and subjects involved from the perception of young people who attend three different educational levels: middle school, upper secondary and university education. So that we can see if there are significant differences by educational level. Some of the Data reveal that young people in the three grade levels are conscious that some attitudes are expressions of everyday discrimination. Also establish direct or indirect link such attitudes to violence. Because of this we believe that the naturalization of those attitudes and discriminatory behavior also seen as expressions of violence are a latent risk for healthy living for young people.
