Abstract

The research aimed to analyze data on institutional care in the city of Araguaína -TO. Through data that they configured in Institutional Census, it sought to understand aspects of Public Policies for children and adolescents and their relations with social vulnerability. The study is justified because it allows an analysis of this audience, which reveals aspects and discussions that involve the characterization of a necropolitics that only sediments social vulnerability. Having as a hypothesis that public policies are based on factors that say of a construction for the subject's mortification, leaving them either left to their own devices or with reparative actions that have little effect on breaking the social cycle of poverty and / or abandonment / neglect, it was also worked with the assumption that families use social tactics to circumvent vulnerabilities and to gain access to rights. Methodologically, descriptive statistics and analysis of institutional documents were used, which were structured and digitized based on the physical entry forms of the host. Theoretically, Certeau (2009, 2018) was used in what refers to the "Art of Doing" or "Tactics" to understand the game of comings and goings of families; de Sen (2000, 2011) and Castel (1997, 1998) to capture the vulnerability and social structure and of MBembe (2018) to embrace the debate on the construction of policies for death, known as necropolitics. The results and conclusions show that the number of sheltered people during the 12 years of careat the host house in Araguaína/TO, proved to be significant, totaling approximately 824 institutionalized. The characteristics of the children and adolescents welcomed and their families were described and the reasons that generated such welcoming were configured. It has reached situations that demonstrate so much that policies for children and adolescents are configured as necropolitics, as well as countless cases that prove the use of social tactics, such as the delivery of children to the shelter as the last way to access health services. health to treat illnesses or to access preferential places in the housing policy lists among other public health, education, and labor market policies, playing with the system seeking to survive, as evidenced by Mbembe in his work.
