Growing up in Latin America contributes to the growing body of scholarship on the representation of children and minors in contemporary Latin American literature and film. This volume looks closely at the question of agency and the role of minors as active participants in the complex historical processes of the Latin American continent during the 20th and 21st centuries, both as national citizens and as transnational migrants. Questions of gender, migration, violence, post-coloniality, and precarity are central to the analysis of childhood and youth narratives in this collection of essays.

Marco Ramírez Rojas is associate professor of Spanish at City University of New York, Lehman College.
Pilar Osorio Lora is associate professor at Colegio de Estudios Superiores de Administración in Bogota.
