Abstract

This study analyzed the play of knowledge and powers that permeate speeches and social and cultural practices carried out in the project “Educational Trend of Young Students from Campo Grande” (TRAJE), operated by the City Schools of Campo Grande, in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, at the Osvaldo Cruz City School. An institution which has among its objective, to provide a transversal educational model, as an education mode in basic and elementary education, thus adequating aspects related to education of young adults, in singular dynamics exercises. The study is linked to the Foucauldian Reference Academic Investigation Study Group, of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (GEIARF/UFMS), configured as an ethnographic type, of empirical-analytical and documentary character, showing as sources incorporated in process, institutional documents, group discussions conducted with students and individual open interviews undertaken in an exploratory mode with students, as well as with managers, psychosocial, technical and pedagogical staff and teachers of the Traje Project. Corresponding to established sources, findings and records arising from observational procedures. The analysis of political and educational devices, researched under Foucauldian inspiration, conform and systematize the efforts of study, for conditions that raise the educational level of young people aged from 15 to 17, grouped by a set of features considered similar, which sorts them by cultural, social and economic anomalies. In the midst of the questioning, we use genealogy as an analytical possibility in interfaces with relations between knowledge and power. We resize in view of the Traje Project, the existence of social and cultural discourses and practices interwoven in an effective, enhanced institutional apparatus with the use of technologies of control and discipline. As a result of incursions carried out, we highlight the fragility of the interventions of the State at the expense of the Traje Project Proposal, while adaptation of a standard of schooling which purposes are forged as being pragmatic, corrective and resolute. On this, the Project in its social and cultural practices carried out, as institutional space/school, proposes under speeches and protection exercises, schooling and guard, as a matter of fact, regulate behavior and make bodies docile, in counterpoint to different clashes, resistances and effects, adding individuals in their (dis) adjustments and abnormalities, extrapolating purposes and ideas of pedagogical characteristic.
