“I didn’t want to kill him”: Disputes and Conflicts in Lethal Aggression in Young People from Popular Sectors This paper aims to understand how everyday disputes in spaces of close sociability lead to homicides in young people. The central problems that guide our reflection are linked to the narrative explicitation of the symbolic, moral and emotional frameworks that compose them. The research was carried out in popular neighborhoods in the metropolitan area of the city of Buenos Aires. We argue that these homicides are inscribed in sociabilities that interweave expressions of “the intolerable” as an embodied experience. This experience drives a radical action in the space of interaction that can lead to lethal aggression.
