VILACA, Murilo Mariano; GAWRYSZEWSKI, Bruno  e  PALMA, Alexandre. Crítica à panaceia pedagógico-desportiva. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2014, vol.28, n.55, pp.169-198. ISSN 1982-596X.

The idea that sports are effectively useful for changing, including and changing the life of marginalized youth by promoting peace, order and citizenship has been constantly reiterated. Educators, the mass media and the scientific literature have suggested people to believe sports can successfully change them into “good citizens”. This article aims to: (1) identify a possible relation with the values concerning the idea of social capital and the objectives to be achieved concerning the marginalized youth; (2) think of violence as a concept and a political phenomenon by discussing that violence is not necessarily seen as something always negative; and (3) indicate the limits of that idea by explaining its misconceptions and criticizing its aims. We conclude that such idea is involved in a speech full of inaccuracies and it is basically a social technology for pacification which does not substantially modify the life of the marginalized youth.
