Inquire the way of Salesian insertion on the context of Pernambuco’s modernization process, between 1892 and 1906, because correspond to the mobilizations for the coming order to Recife and culminate with the launch of the High School Statute. Methodologically, it is anchor by the concept of representation (CHARTIER, 1990), because enable the power design of a group through their characteristics expressions. It believes that the variation between the promises launch by the mobilizations and the curricular structure of the Statute documents the group practices associated with the Salesians and the Church. In conclusion, the installation of the Salesians in Recife is included in the called conservative modernization (EISENBERG, 1977). The teaching offered represented the charity in terms of the "poor’s” insertion in the "life of decent and honest crafts". But, by the representation of a modern service, to offer ability for the worker’s sons, it reproduced the traditional social composition.
