SUMMARY:

This doctoral research, conducted within the Graduate Program in Education at the University of Brasília and developed in the Research Group on Generations and Youth (Geraju), aimed to understand how young people aged 18 to 21, deprived of liberty in the socio-educational and prison systems of the Federal District, produce youth and how the marks of violence are inscribed in their life trajectories. Grounded in the Praxeological Sociology of Knowledge and the Documentary Method of Interpretation, this study is framed within qualitative reconstructive research, taking as its point of departure the practices and collective orientations emerging from the participants’ discourses. Empirical material was produced between 2022 and 2024 through participant observation, group discussions, and narrative interviews conducted in both systems. The spaces of conjunctive experiences constitute the analytical axis, guided by an understanding of youth as a relational, processual, and situated condition, shaped by belonging, inequality, and violence. The reconstructed collective orientations reveal social spaces—family and neighborhood—as symbolic and material territories of youth production, marked by tensions between affection and rupture, belonging and exclusion. In institutional spaces—school and deprivation of liberty systems—the school is documented as a place of exclusion and disciplining, while deprivation of liberty appears as a punitive extension of social and racial inequality. The analysis reconstructs modes of youth production (shock, adaptation, rupture, and dispute) in contexts permeated by structural, institutional, and symbolic violence
