CASTRILLON V., María del Carmen. Minority Children and Their Places of "Reform and Correction" in Colombia (1900-1930). Soc. Econ. [online]. 2014, n.26, pp.41-64. ISSN 1657-6357.
This article outlines some characteristics of institutional spaces for containment and support of children categorized as minor under conditions of poverty, abandonment and social risk, during the first three decades of the twentieth century in Colombia. Through the revision of press articles, a Salvationist project can be evidenced which is included in legal, medical, and pedagogical discourses that define not only corrective/repressive actions -as it has frequently been postulated in the studies on children on that time- but also compassionate/re-educational actions. In the core of this combination the categories associated with childhood are rearranged, among which there is that of "minors" acquiring life in the legislation and in spaces of institutional containment (children courts, correctional homes, agricultural farms).
