Representações de servidores da Secretaria de Justiça e Direitos Humanos (SEJUDH) acerca da formação dos agentes socioeducadores

Abstract

This paper is part of the research line Paradigms of Language Teaching, of the Post graduation program in Language Studies, at the Federal University of Mato Grosso. It aims to unveil the representations of civil servants of the Justice and Human Rights Secretariat (SEJUDH) about the socio-educational agents, who are responsible for the socio education of vulnerable adolescents, deprived of freedom. The theoretical framework is based on assumptions of the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), supported by Norman Fairclough (2003a), in the study of Social Actors Representations, proposed by Theo Van Leeuwen (1997), and the Systemic-Functional Linguistics, by Halliday (1994). The results of the analyses clarify the specificities of the profession socioeducational agent and the need for investment in the professional/human continuing education for these professionals.
