This study presents partial results of a master’s research that examines the sociability of adolescents in conflict with the law in the city of Uberlândia (MG) in 2017. The research focuses specifically on male adolescents who are in the city’s juvenile center Centro Socioeducativo de Uberlândia (CSEUB). The aim is to understand the meanings the subjects attribute to their social experiences, using historical and dialectical materialism as a theoretical-methodological basis. The study is grounded on the sociability of the subjects around the work. As well as the field research at the CSEUB, a bibliographic review was conducted identifying the authors and their contribution to the literature on the issue. The analysis observed the subjects within a macro-social context, regarding the productive restructuring and new configurations of the world of work. This perspective allows understanding that the sociability of the adolescents observed in the context of the research (and their social group) is shaped by the socio-metabolism of capital, contributing to its reproduction and maintenance.
