Let s talk about a slum called Slum of Steel. Located in the suburbia of the city of Rio de Janeiro, it gets to the Academy through my contact with some of the local habitants, whose daughters participated in a project done by the city s Secretary of Social Assistance. Two features call our attention about the reality of this community: the large amount of habitants living on the streets may be found in the south zone of the town, and also a politic appliance inaugurated by the Secretary named Pole of Vigilance and Exclusion. We depart from the hypothesis which the Pole of Vigilance and Exclusion has been a politic appliance thought as a way to stop slums habitants from walking by the south zone streets of the town, because, once they are included in social projects by the prefecture and also mapped by these technicians, returning to the streets might mean the loss of such money transference, such as Bolsa Família and other projects as well. In this dissertation, we search, with the exchange with Social Service, bring historical perspective of instituted social politics in our country, where we could notice the maintenance of some built-up practices within conservative social parametres. Other discussions are also contemplated in this work, where we convoke Sociology personified by Loïc Wacqüant, in his analysis towards social segregation and gethification and Philosophy, in the image of Foucault, from his concerns about controlling society mechanisms. It is in this spirit that I invite and wish you all a good read.
