RESUMO

The object of this research is psychologists practice inside educational institutions. We aim at calling attention to the primacy of the material character of praxis above its representational character as fundamental element to a critical practice in psychology applied to education. In order to achieve this, we take adolescence in conflict with the law and the attendance offered by government to deal with it as fields of analysis and practice, using a part of a NGOs work inside a school in custody at an institution called FEBEM/SP. Using the methodological framework of critical ethnography, the practical part of this research consists of the participation of researcher in educational activities during a scholastic semester inside a custody facility. Besides, interviews were made with inmates, teachers and professionals of practices team. Through fetishism as analytical concept from historical materialism, the motivations that lead adolescents to offend and the logic that leads the system of attendance to them are analyzed. The attempted practice has as background theoretical and methodological constructions of historic materialism in educational / school psychology, trying to develop mediations between a possible exercise of transformative praxis in an institutional context and Marxists ethical formulations. The research documents the hegemonic violence in everyday life custody facility and, thus, verifies the impossibility of offering effective humanization to the adolescent in conflict with the law in the actual system, based on incarceration. Therefore, the research points to the need of transformation of this system considering other logic than the punitive logic. It conceives the active participation of psychologists in the transformation of attendance to adolescents by educational institutions as well.
