description The aim of this article is to explore the ethnic self-identifications of second-generation young people of Mexican origin. To do so, three elements are taken from the American socio-political context that is related to their self-identifications: the identity model of the American, the social imaginary of the Mexican and the census categories of Hispanic/Latino ethnicity and race. The biographical approach, specifically Daniel Bertaux's ethno-sociological perspective through life stories, has been the technique used. The research was carried out during 2016, in Southern California where 51 young people were interviewed. The accounts show that some of the institutional categories end up being part of the self-identifications of the informants, or the informants attribute to themselves many of the phenotypical and/or racial characteristics that are attributed to those categories. The limitation is that it is not possible to include other stories.

Para ello se toman tres elementos del contexto sociopolítico estadounidense que se encuentra en relación con sus autoidentificaciones, estas son: el propio modelo identitario estadounidense, el imaginario social sobre el mexicano y las categorías censales sobre la etnicidad hispana/latina y la raza. El enfoque biográfico, concretamente la perspectiva etnosociológica de Daniel Bertaux a través de los relatos de vida, ha sido la técnica empleada. La investigación se llevó a cabo durante 2016, en el sur de California donde se entrevistó a 51 jóvenes. Los relatos constatan que algunas de las categorías institucionales llevan a que sean parte de las autoidentificaciones de los informantes, o estos se adjudican muchas de las características fenotípicas y/o raciales que se les atribuyen a dichas categorías. Como limitación se encuentra la imposibilidad de incluir otros relatos.
