Resumen
AYOS, Emilio Jorge. Prevention as workfare: welfare since the intersection between social policies and crime policies. Trab. soc. [online]. 2013, n.21, pp.225-246. ISSN 1514-6871.
The aim of this article is to analyze the ways of articulations between two social fields: social policies and crime policies. We describe such articulation looking at strategies for social crime prevention in Argentina during the period 2000-2010. Specifically we focus on the ways such strategies put in question their ties with social intervention, particularly with the area of unemployment attendance. The findings we present are part of a broader research. Such research use a qualitative approach in order to accomplish its objective: to analyze the ways in which the link between living conditions and crime was reconstructed on social crime prevention. We understand these linking as "overlap spaces" between social policies and crime policies. The historical and political context that goes through these processes illustrates how the cleavage security-insecurity is one of the foundations axis from which both camps are organized. This situation permeate discussions, principles, rationalities, and methods of intervention. We argue that this association has become problematic in terms of an exterior and instrumentality of social policy regarding to preventive strategies focused on the idea of labor compensation (workfare) or job training.
