Adolescence(s): Productions and Discussive Crossings in Analysis

Abstract

This article presents a part of an experience of an interventionist-research in two adolescent groups in a private school in Fortaleza, Brazil. With reference to the articulation between speech and types of subjectivation in Foucault's theory, the research had the aim to analyze and problematize the way in which these students are subjetivized by the discourse which circumscribe the adolescence in the contemporary times. In the present analysis (which had the discourses that show the difference between a socially favorable adolescence and the one less favorable as the main focus), it was possible to verify that the versions the teenagers build about themselves and about the other teenagers are interfered by the mediatic and the sociologic discourses. In the first field, it is important to highlight the responsabilization related to the freedom, responsibility and fear. In the midst of the mediatic discourse, the teenagers declared their views adding up excluding conceptions about adolescent pregnancy. The openness they showed to changes and negotiations in their views, which were engendered in the discussion group, might promoted discursive moves, which widen the possibilities of a subjective constitution to those teenagers.
