LEAVY, Pía. Disorder or bad-manners? Reflections from childhood anthropology perspective on a case of ADD on school enviroment. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2013, vol.11, n.2, pp.675-688. ISSN 1692-715X.

Abstract (analytical): Childhood is a relational, diverse and unequal phenomenon, which isbuilt up historically and socially. Medical science, psychology and pedagogy contribute to the representations of a given model of "normal" childhood that articulates with the construction of diagnosis of Hyperactivity and Attention Deficit Disorder (HADD). Objectives: to find out the senses that the different children's behavior acquire, including HADD, for the subjects inside the school and the effects they bring about for the children in question. Methodology: Ethnographic work in a private school in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Open, semi-structured in depth interviews to the adults and children from that school. Results: The children's voice remains silenced in the course of the diagnosis. Even though an organic reason for its justification is alluded to, the diagnosis is built on the basis children's behaviors that cross-refer to a model of normal childhood. Findings: HADD emerges as a "sense category" in the school space, which conceptualizes subjects whose behaviors are not socially accepted. Allusion to these behaviors as "bad manners" allows for constructing practicesalternativeto medication.
