Abstract

CAVAGNOLI, Karen Cristina  and  GUARESCHI, Neuza Maria de Fátima. Possible routes of social assistance policy: guarantee of rights and governmentality. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.1, pp.114-126. ISSN 1808-4281.

The article discusses the rights assurance practices based on the analysis of the National Policy of Social Welfare and social programs related to care practices - Bolsa Família and Paif- Programa de Atendimento Integral à Família, in the light of what Foucault called as technologies of population government. It discusses that the State, in its inability to distribute power, makes operate a game between the guarantee of rights and control over families considered socially vulnerable. It points out that social protection stated in the policy is not only expression and the possibility of access to rights, but a form of risk management through interventions focused on the family, contributing to a process of privatization of social problems.

Keywords : social assistance; rights guarantees; risk; governmentality.
