MALTZ, Hernán. SECONDARY CRIMES: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC APPROACH TO CRIME FICTION IN A SECONDARY SCHOOL. Rev. urug. Antropología y Etnografía [online]. 2020, vol.5, n.1, pp.38-55.  Epub 01-Jun-2020. ISSN 2393-7068.  https://doi.org/10.29112/ruae.v5.n1.3.

I carried out an ethnographic approach in a secondary school, with a double aim: on one hand, the observation of how the crime fiction genre is taught following the guidelines of the study programs and of the teachers’ concrete practices; on the other hand, the consideration of the students as cultural consumers -trained and in training. From my observations and exchanges with students and teachers, I conclude that crime fiction suffers a “secondary” condition in the educational establishment, with a series of institutional logics (temporary, spatial, exams, other subjects, etc.) that overlap.
