School and Police: The Production of Knowledge for the Control and Socialization of Children and Adolescents

Abstract

The article presents an updated excerpt of the author's doctoral thesis defended in 2022 with the theme that relates police and school. In this context, it is strategic to understand the transition, especially from the 1990s onwards, from the treatment of problems previously considered only in the pedagogical sphere to, then, the axis of public security. The discursive analysis of military police officers of the Minas Gerais corporation expands the possibilities of interpretation of the relationships that are established in the face of the dynamics of judicialization of conflicts in the school environment. It is also possible to perceive the complexity of the concepts, starting with the very definition of school violence.
