SILVA, Caio Andrêo    SOUZA, Leonardo Lemos de. Masculinities and Violence: Life narratives of Youths in Conflict with the Law. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. []. 2020, 13, 3, pp.1-19. ISSN 1983-8220.  https://doi.org/10.36298/gerais202013e15485.

This article aims to describe the processes of subjectivation of masculinities in interface with violence, based on the perspectives on narratives of four young people between the ages of 16 and 18, who fulfilled socio - educational measures within a socio - welfare institution. The analyzes were made based on the perspectives about the speech and statement in Bakhtin and Foucault, highlighting their productions as sources of discourses capable of revealing processes of subjectivation, as well as the studies about masculinities. From the analysis, three thematic axes were produced: relationship between the funk dances with masculinity, power and violence; family and structural violence in youth subjectivation; relations of gender violence and masculinities present in affective relationships. The discussions point out problematizations arising from Psychology that promote disruptions due to the naturalization of masculinities related to violence and possible contributions from critical perspectives that allow their pluralization and the (re)invention of the possibilities of existence of the young people.
