This in-progress research study proposes a methodology for child work, based on two mechanisms for the generation of discourses through ludic activities. The first aims to identify relational dynamics in the family context; the second has the objective of recognizing the ways in which these dynamics are developed in the school environment. This article also presents the analytical categories that have been used to define the situation of the working children, based on the identification of the main topics used in literature from specialized journals. These categories are deployed as hermeneutical principles that will allow for the identification of children as social and productive actors and as citizens with rights and duties that demand to be respected.

Keywords : child work; human capital; social institutions; citizen participation; qualitative research methods; causes and consequences of child work; ludic research strategies.
