HADLER, Oriana H.. Between institutions and encounters: youth putting an end to violence. Rev. bras. psicodrama [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.2, pp. 13-25. ISSN 2318-0498.

This article intends to reflect on the different facets of violence and the way violence manifests itself in our contemporary society, especially with regards to public policies and institutional practices directed at youth. Anchored in the Morenian belief that every individual is in constant development and transformation, this paper describes two sociodramatic encounters of youths from an institution offering socio-educational support, seeing both these experiences as a call to change our view and understanding of institutional work, adolescents being part of a culture where interaction is a constant vector. Based on these reflections it becomes notable how psychodramatic work in such institutions can promote changes in how to be an adolescent, and also instigate the creative potential of contemporary youths.

Palavras-chave : Violence; cultural conserve; institutional practices; adolescents; creative potential.
