LEAL, Denise Maria e MACEDO, João Paulo. Protective and punitive discourses on adolescents in detention in Brazil. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp.207-221. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.17112.
The present article aims to capture the meaning of comprehensive protection that is present in the treatment of adolescents who are in detention for having committed criminal acts. This study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with eight workers and a documental analysis of Individual Assistance Plans, Technical Evaluation Reports, files detailing the progress of cases, sentences, on-site evaluation reports and public socio-educational measures in the Male Educational Centre (MEC) in Teresina-PI, Brazil. Using a discourse analysis perspective, the results showed that the meanings around comprehensive protection were related to punishment, through the understanding of the infraction as the responsibility of the individual, the presence of violence in the young offenders’ lives and blaming the family. In this logic, protective and punitive discourses were alternated, as if they were part of the same intervention logic.
