Jovens em Medida Socioeducativa: Biografia Menor versus Corpos na Guerra em Parnaíba /PI/BR

Abstract

The construction of the socially dangerous youth in Brazil involves, above all, discriminatory and stigmatizing determinations, elaborated on black, impoverished and peripheral people, subjects historically and culturally marked to die. In 2019, for example, there were 45,503 registered homicides, of which 34,466, corresponding to more than 3⁄4, are of black people, and more than half (23,327) of the overall total are young people. The data demonstrate the reality that has been built in Brazil from colonization to the present day. This reveals the Myth of Racial Democracy experienced in Brazil and the inconclusive abolitionism that imposes on black people conditions of misery and criminalization in order to exclude and kill. The biography of the body marked for death or necrography occurs in the incorporation of labels that stigmatize young black people in Brazil and in the world, authorizing their deaths. These are the effects of Necropolitics, the tactic of extermination that produces death or lets live. In this sense, the most diverse devices of social control act as maintainers of the privileges of the elites and consequently subject specific portions of the population to policies of regulation of bodies and promotion of death. Even with this imposition, the objective of this research is to investigate which youth is produced by young people in compliance with socio-educational measures (MSE) in open environments in Parnaíba-PI and to discover their life graphs or Minor Biography, which shows how they inhabit their territories, trace lines of escape and produce life. For data production, Sociopoetics was valued as an ethos, considering its principles, which promote decolonizing experiences. In the data production workshop, devires-creatures-life were invented that reveal the Problem-War-Negotiation-Faction confetti, an important contour in the production of youth subjectivity in Parnaíba-PI. In addition to this denunciation, the data showed lines of escape for the production and expansion of life through the art of radical maneuvers on motorcycles and in relationships of love and friendship.
