Integral protection and the counseling of vulnerabilities of children and adolescents
Abstract
Integral protection is consolidated as a Brazilian legal doctrine aimed at children and adolescents. It is configured in the elements: shared responsibility, recognition of the condition of subject, principle of absolute priority, fundamental rights, prevention of violence and peculiar condition of developing person. Although welcomed in 1988-1990, the reality of Brazilian children and adolescents still demands care. Violence against this population persists and is recognized in the country. The many forms of violence in the child and adolescent are related to the scourges of humanistic promises in general. From the tools of the critical theory of human rights it is possible to dialogue with comprehensive protection in a broader and deeper way, towards the achievement of concrete and emancipatory dignity, through consideration of vulnerabilities, both intrinsic and in others that commonly accumulate in the context of countries like Brazil (here taken as peripheral), as is the case of socioeconomic vulnerability.
