Resumo:
In Brazil, Scouting has more than one hundred years of existence, being considered one of the extracurricular educational projects that during your history acted directly with volunteering as the center of the process. In the year 1980, the São Francisco Scout Group began the practice of Scouting with the help of society and local politicians who saw in this project the responsibility of drive the baixienses young through their disciplinary pedagogy to the civic, moral and patriotic values charged during the period in which Brazil experienced the Military Dictatorship. The Scout Movement originated in England in the start twentieth century, and was idealized by the British military Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell, who was responsible for creating the founding literature of the Movement and developed the scout symbology that has become a practice that runs through the time, becoming a tradition. Knowing that Scouting was an extracurricular educational project developed for the reality of the English youth of the beginning of the 20th century, we launched the questioning question: How was this project developed in the city of Baixio? Thereby, the objective of this work is to analyze the practices of Scouting that occurred in the city of Baixio, State of Ceará (1980-1985), through the narratives of people who experienced experiences in the participation as scout members. In theoretical terms, we work with the concepts of tradition, discipline, and memory, outlined by theorists, HOBSBAWM and RANGER (2002), FOUCAULT (1987) and HALBWACHS (1990).
