In specific, it was established the following goals: a) analysing the politics of freedom privation for people under age in the beginning of XX century until the 1988 Brazil’s Federal Constitution; b) analysing the official speech about educational politics targeted to teenagers upon fulfilment of social integration measurements of internment in Brazil from the Federal Constitution of 1988; c) Mapping the typical profile of teenagers under freedom privation in Bahia; d) knowing the dynamic of a school located in the interior of an institution of compliance of social integration of internment in Bahia; e) understanding the comprehension of the educators about the school in the internment unit; f) comprehending the conceptions of the students about the school in the internment unit.

Which contradictions exist between what the law says and what is really possible of being built in this territory? Therefore, it is adopted here the case study of ethnographic inspiration, because it showed itself as an important methodological resource on educational research. As the procedures of the field research, 88 hours of in class observation were completed and registered in field diary and amplified reports of each meeting; in addition, individual interviews were made with four different educators and a teenager with a duration of about 1h20. The analysis of this research it is anchored in the critic referential of the psychological and educational field that joins themselves with the elements of the Hip Hop culture, in special, the RAP lyrics and the marginals poetries. Also, the research is composed by my own experience as a worker at this territory and active person that attends the peripheral spaces in the city.

In contrast to that, we seek summarizing the various information and knowledge accumulated in the research field through what has been named as witnessed fiction, to protect the identity and the dignity of the participants of this research. The work intermediates academic writing with micro short stories and poetries written by myself based on the field immersion. Besides that, it makes part of the analysis the production of a group of visual arts built by the illustration from Bahia Mateus Barbosa from our conversations about the research.By means of the research, it is possible to affirm that the social interaction interior is characterized by the non-education. The institutional dynamic possesses marks evident and severes of violence, pain and suffering, having the racism and poverty as selective elements of the teenagers that will be the system targets. An institutional that abandons their educators since their arrival until the dismissal, hiding the institutional problems under the carpet, failing on their duty fulfilling the rights socially constructed. The thesis points to the request of historical repairment to the black people that go there, for all the rights that were denied submitting the state to the judge.
