VELAZQUEZ, Maria Eugenia. Body and image: About body, rights and childhood social imaginary construction. Anu. investig. [online]. 2011, vol.18, pp.447-454. ISSN 1851-1686.

The following paper appears in the context of the works of the UBACYT P423, 2008/10, research group, Analysis of the practice on legal psychology in relation to crimes against sexual integrity (law nº 25087/99) and sexual rights: organizational-institutional, symbolical-imaginary, and genealogical-historical dimensions. Director: B.A. Matilde de la Iglesia. In the attempt of charting (Guattari, 2000; Guattari-Rolnik, 2006) the social imaginaries of social rights, graphics sources -photographs and internet- were used in order to determinate under which sense-giving operations the media constructs possible images of sex rights and body; and their effects on individual subjective constitution. In children's clothing catalogs, that have been taken as representatives and active collaborators of cultural signification of contemporary childhood, images of children with adults features are shown, or at least models whose childish features have to be dissimulated.

Keywords : Social imaginary signification; Body; Image; Rights.
