Abstract

From the magazine of the state commission of the Brazilian Legion of Assistance (LBA), newspapers A União and A Imprensa and other knowledge that circulated in Paraíba in the 1940s and 1950s, the question arises: how the policy of assisting children in LBA mobilized definitions citizenship and historical time to give meaning to a “new time”? Through the theoretical and methodological assumptions of the analysis of Michel Foucault's discourse, it is analyzed how the actions had a technical and political impact, mapping the knowledge on which they were anchored to legitimize forms of childhood government. This social policy was linked to proposals from the National Department of the Child (DNCr) and the International Child Relief Fund (FISI), an agency of the United Nations (UN) that worked in Paraíba with a focus on the issue of the right to food and health childish.
