Para ello nos hemos relacionado con docentes y estudiantes con sencillez, sin ánimo evaluativo, tomando en cuenta las dificultades intensas del presente, que no se disiparán completamente con el paso del tiempo, y que más bien plantearán nuevos dilemas, preguntas y retos.

Este es un estudio etnográfico exploratorio que sigue las historias familiares de estos jóvenes, sus trayectorias educativas, laborales o alternativas, sus prácticas de consumo y su relación con la política a lo largo de un año, a fin de presentar temas y evidencia cualitativa que alimenten el renovado interés en discusiones de clase, movilidad social, pobreza y desigualdad en el Perú. *******
"Brand-name Sneakers Only" is the result of a one-year ethnographic study that follows eight young Limeños, four women and four men, and their families. We focused our attention on these young people's family narratives, their educational, employment, or alternative trajectories, their consumption practices, and their relation to technology and to politics.
These Limeños are the children and grandchildren of those once called by social sciences as the "conquerors of a new world." These individuals were primarily Andean migrants who arrived in successive waves to Lima, the Peruvian capital, and founded neighborhoods in the hilly areas at the outskirts of the more traditional and wealthier areas of the city through organized political actions and collective struggles. The generation that we study, in contrast to their predecessors, were born and grew up in the Lima of the 2000s, that experienced sustained neoliberal, extractive-based economic growth. Development economics refers to them as the "emergent" and "vulnerable" middle classes who emerged from poverty thanks to this economic model and its “market inclusion”. The questions that guided our inquiry are: While in terms of quantitative data life conditions seem to have improved, how do these numbers translate in practice in the real lives of people? What are the possible social mobility scenarios for those who supposedly have emerged from poverty in recent years? What does this inclusion mean in terms of reducing inequality? How and under what conditions does a vulnerable emerging person or family live in Lima? What are the occupations of these young Limeños, what do they consume, and how do they experience politics?
By telling the stories of these young Limeños and their families, our aim is to contribute with qualitative insights to the ongoing conversation about poverty, class, social mobility, and inequality in Peru.
