The objective of this article is to reflect on the sense of socioeducation and itscontradictions in the practice of the social education counselor. For that, it analyses data of a qualitativeresearch, which uses interviews and the understanding of the role of socio-educators in the SpecializedReference Centers in Social Assistance (CREAS) of five municipalities in the interior of the state of SãoPaulo. Through critical analysis, it is evident the contradictions between socio-educational and punitivegoals. We understand, considering the complexity of the practice that this issue relates to a current sociohistorical context marked by the logic of the individualization of social problems, an inheritance of thedoctrine of the irregular situation that corroborates with the indications of the literature of the area. Thus,despite advances in the direction of guaranteeing rights, socio-education, from the perspective of the research participants, in the daily life of services, it is dubious between protection and punishment. Thus,from the results of the research, it is possible to affirm that socio-education is effective in thecontradiction resulting from its little conceptual precision as well as the difficulties of execution in thedaily routine of services. In such a way, most of the socio-educational actions stem from being morepunitive. From this perception, it is necessary to improve public policies, development, and collectiveparticipation in the construction and application of a proposal for socio-education.
