Young people are the ones we talk about, more than the ones we listen to, the ones we show more than the ones who show how they live. The POP-PART research, a multidisciplinary project of the Centre d'histoire sociale des mondes contemporains, tried to take up this challenge: to build, with young people, youth professionals and researchers, a "more accurate and fleshed-out representation of the world", taking into account the diversity of trajectories and situations. It tried to overcome the two pitfalls encountered in research on the working classes or on the subalterns: on the one hand, a vision from above, sometimes contributing to stigmatization, and on the other hand, a form of naive romanticism. Involving one hundred and twenty young people, about fifteen professionals or association leaders and about fifteen researchers, it developed a participatory methodology based on workshops, the production of videos and texts, and the discussion of analyses.
