ABSTRACT. This study aims to understand the relationship between work and education in the socio-educational proposal aimed at poor children and adolescents during the military regime, as expressed in the documents of the National Foundation for the Welfare of Minors (Funabem) and in the discourse of the authorities present at the first Forum on Minors. To this end, we have sought to identify the educational ends and means presented in this material, to analyze the relationship between this educational proposal and the ideology of national security, and to uncover the ideological link between the proposals for assistance and education for poor children and adolescents and the preparation of cheap labor for the labor market. This is a theoretical and documentary research based on the assumptions of historical and dialectical materialism, especially the works of Marx (2011), Engels (2009), and Mészáros (2011, 2015), to understand the origin and function of the state, with an emphasis on Lukács' (2007, 2013) postulates on ontological work. The literature review is based on Bazílio (1985), Becher (2011), Silva (2011), and Celestino (2015), among others, and the interpretation of the data is supported by Bardin's (2016) content analysis technique. The results highlight that poor children, referred to as minors, are considered dangerous or worthless, usually as a result of a maladjusted family, and therefore the individual must be corrected, not society. In this modeling process, education is central and is responsible for ensuring that these individuals adapt to the prevailing social order by training them in manual tasks, intending to transform them into adults who are useful to themselves and the nation.
