The qualitative research combined document analysis of records and technical reports with semi-structured interviews with CREAS technicians and adolescents serving or having completed socio-educational measures. Data interpretation was based on the legal frameworks of the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (ECA) and the National System of Socio-Educational Care (SINASE), as well as critical references from Social Work. The results show that, although the CREAS of Itaporanga-PB plays an essential role in the accountability and monitoring of adolescents, the service faces structural limitations, such as the absence of a dedicated team, an overload of demands, and a scarcity of material and methodological resources. Conversely, there have been notable advances in the areas of reception, qualified listening, and engagement with families—elements recognized by the adolescents themselves as fundamental to their processes of change. The research concludes that the effective implementation of socio-educational measures in open settings depends on the consolidation of the social protection network, professional development, and increased public co-financing, in order to ensure that socio-education becomes a space for emancipation, citizenship, and the rebuilding of bonds, and not merely an extension of penal control.

Such changes began as a result of the exhaustion of the sociability founded in the Taylorist-Fordist pattern, and of the emergency for a new accumulation regime. This new regime, should be flexible and permeated by the complex of a productive restructuring process and by a new organization model of work, lined with the Toyotist production, which came to redefine the requirements for the workers in respect to the professional qualification. These demands were amplified into a scenario which has as its differential exploration potential, the enhancement of the mechanization as a result of the last Technological Revolution. Such a scenario unveils a new cultural wave so-called postmodernism. The postmodernism is oriented by a pseudo-criticality which searches to palm these contradictions and to mythicize the reality, by anchoring itself in the idea of a new time. The set of these postmodern formulations, is featured by the skepticism and by the incredulity about the future, moreover, by the loss of historical meaning, more specifically the loss of the modernity and of its ideas about rationality, in special to the Marxist critical dialectic. This work searched to problematize the expression “knowledge society”, and the extremely polissemic postmodern orientation ideology whose main substantiation is the immateriality of the work in an apparent context of super imminent technology. This is a expression which is commonly used to suppose that we are living a phase of full democratization of the information and of the universalization of knowledge, which brings to the worker the challenge of being conversant with the new technologies. The worker also needs to be higher qualified and able to guarantee its own “employability”. The objective of this work was to verify the implications and the mismatching of such presuppositions to the Brazilian reality in the context of the productive restructuring process. For this, we executed a theoretical work, by establishing a dialogue between the critical thinkers with the apologists of this ideology, and we used some documents from the World Bank and from the UNESCO, which were fundamental to the propagation of the ideology in Brazil. Such dialogue and documents were the empirical base for our research. We adopted the critical orientation and the historical dialectical materialism as the theoretical methodology for our work, and we used the categorical bases of Marx to analyse the fundamental and the assumptions of the “knowledge society”. We started which the hypothesis that the “knowledge society” is a ideology of postmodern orientation, which tries to redefine the societies, by taking as its bases the experiences of economically developed countries, in order to establish consensus around the domination projects, as well as the hegemony of such countries. We confirm such a hypothesis and concluded that the Brazilian society cannot be understood as a “knowledge society”, once our productive restructuring process was much more marked by precariousness and by the outsourcing of the labor then by the implementation of technologies into it. Besides, we verified that the influence of this ideology inside to country reverberated in the negative incidence for the materiality and for the subjectivity of the labor class.

The secondary objectives include: a) discussing the instrumental dimension of Social Work in the socio-legal field; b) investigating the specificities of the social worker’s practice within the MPBA; and c) identifying the particularities of social work in this institutional context, especially in light of conservative influences and their implications for the professional ethicalpolitical project. The research is grounded in historical-dialectical materialism, which enables a critical reflection on bourgeois sociability and its contradictions within the socio-historical movement of social reality. This is a qualitative, exploratory study. The main data collection method involved semi-structured interviews conducted via the digital platform ConferênciaWeb with social workers from the MPBA. Data were analyzed using content analysis, supported by literature review and document analysis. The research revealed that the work of social workers in the MPBA is marked by contradictions and ambiguities – at times aligned with public policy surveillance, the judicialization of social issues, and the criminalization of poverty; at other times enabling the realization of social rights, particularly collective and individual rights. Additionally, the presence of conservative ideological remnants in the MPBA can be observed, influencing how social workers address reality, often resulting in fragmented, punctual, and functionalist responses. Nonetheless, the findings confirm that the social workers operating in the socio-legal field within the MPBA are aligned with the social direction of the professional ethical-political project, defending human rights and the universalization of historically acquired social rights. It is concluded that the instrumental dimension of Social Work equips professionals with the technical-scientific capacity to critically analyze social reality, enabling them to break away from merely technical, fragmented, and punctual practices.

The relevance of this study consists in the search for understanding: how have the professional practice spaces being offered? Under what conditions have the social workers been performing their laboral activities at the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS)? What were the implications of Covid-19 in this occupation space in the municipalities that distance themselves from the large large centers of Paraíba state, specially in the Paraiban Upper Outback, in the 13th Geoadministrative Region? On the other hand, it has been observed the absence of studies regarded to the workers of SUAS, which are of peculiar importance to understand the dynamics of the working environment in that place. The theoretical, methodological, material, historical and dialectical approach is processed in this essay about the following categories of analysis: work, professional performance and working conditions from the laboral relationship established within the daily action inserted in the context of flexibilization and precarious work. Starting from this approach, bibliographic and documentary references have been used as an investigative path, with quantitative-qualitative methodology during the data collection, as well as data analysis with the application of a semi-structured questionnaire and focus group altogether the social workers who labor at SUAS, in the municipalities of the 13th RGA of Paraíba state. From the analysis of the collected data it is possible to infer that the Covid-19 pandemic has deepened the precariousness that has been experienced by the social workers of SUAS, who has been working in the Upper Outback of Paraiba state, for years. Thus, we can consider that there has been some aggravating factors, such as a feeling of fear and illness, such as was stated during the dialogue established in the focus group, in a unique moment of this investigation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to react and understand that it is possible to go beyond. On the other hand, it is of particular importance to mobilize the category and everyone in the struggle for the maintenance of democracy, so that we can, in a very near future, ensure the existence and permanence of SUAS, improving its structure and working conditions for everyone who works with families and individuals who, in their turn, experience the difficult times of barbarism.
