SILVA, Joyce Mary Adam de Paula e  and  SALLES, Leila Maria Ferreira. A violência na escola: abordagens teóricas e propostas de prevenção. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2010, n.numeroespecial02, pp.217-232. ISSN 0104-4060.

The objective of this text is maturing a reflection, by means of a revision of studies in the area, on the theoretical trends involved on current discussions on school violence. We try to characterize proposals of intervention in the school environment implemented for governmental initiative to prevent violence. These proposals have, as a core objective, the incentive of democratic relations at school. It is pointed in this study that this important incentive to install democratic relations is insufficient to prevent violence pertaining the school scope. The violence determinants go beyond the individual and group characteristics of the people involved, and they are not restricted to the school context. Thus, it is important that the violence prevention programs extend the reflection on the different aspects concerned to school violence.

Keywords : School; Violence; Proposals of Intervention.
