CHRISTOFARO, Alice da Conceição  y  ABREU JUNIOR, Laerthe de Morais. The relationship between students and poverty at the Edelweiss Barcellos student aiding fund at University of Minas Gerais (1932-1935). Educ. Rev. [online]. 2013, vol.29, n.04, pp.119-148. ISSN 0102-4698.

This article aims to analyze the discourse on poverty among students of higher education courses at the University of Minas Gerais who requested aid from the Caixa do Estudante Pobre Edelweiss Barcellos (CEPEB) in the period from 1932 to 1935. It highlights the power relations, the production of utterances that sought to convince those involved in the approval of applications, and the truth effects used to help achieve this. The choice for analysis of this issue relates to the Foucauldian perspective on discourse production and truth effects. The statements that form the corpus of CEPEB documents pointed out the existence of a discursive formation regarding the poverty of students, which goes beyond material deprivation. Relations were established between such students and society and these featured expressions of friendship, dependency and assistance
