GRINBERG, Julieta. The Suárez family and the institutions of the system of child protection: An analysis on contemporary forms of governing over families in contexts of inequality and poverty. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.1, pp.631-643. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.14143161214.
This article aims at problematizing the various actions implemented by agents from the City of Buenos Aires‘ children protection system in order to avoid separating children from their families and communities. For this purpose, the paper examines the case of a family whose children were institutionalized after a series of interventions attempting to change the parents‘ behavior. Based on the stories of various actors involved in the process collected through ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2007 and 2009 and in the framework of the implementation of laws protecting childhood, this article analyzes the forms in which families are governed in contexts of inequality and poverty.
