In this article there will be shown two different perceptive structures that appear in a group of football supporters identified with Platense, team located in the north of Buenos Aires City which currently plays at the third division. Since the death of a twenty year-old youth who belonged to the group, between 2009 and 2011 the author developed an ethnographical study in which analyzed identity as a generator of violence, their relationship with territories and discourses regarding death. Among that study it became possible to make an approach to two perceptive structures: the idea of being constantly dealing with the adversity and a strongest power, and the relationship with time. In this second case, we are able to demystify the current belief of a present preponderance. As a result, it’s also possible to make an approach to the influence of death in their ways of living.Downloads
