SCHEINVAR, Estela. Tutelary council must not be written with capital letters. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.70, n.spe, pp. 105-116. ISSN 1809-5267.

Among the disputes around the law "Child and Adolescent Statute" is the struggle for the decriminalization of some situations arising from poverty, taking them off the Judiciary Power, and destining them to other kind of assistance services, or to services that claim for the rights guaranty. This is a proposal that seeks to produce displacements with the implantation of the tutelary council: a governamentalization of poverty that turns visible the conjugation of power devices of sovereign and security. Although initially proposed to dejudicialize, the practices of the tutelary council have associated it to the juridical sphere, to the punitive approach present in a society that structures itself through the juridical perspective, distancing itself from the bigger part of the service providers; this is visible even in the writing of the texts, when it is referred in a different way in relation to the Executive Power organisms, using capital letters: "Conselho Tutelar", as demanded by the Judiciary Power organisms.

Keywords : Tutelary Council; Judicialization; Michel Foucault.
