Abstract

Objective: Reflect on a systematic order seeking to understanding how specific the lectures in sociological field area has interpreted the social class concept and stipulated relations between physical practices, children and teenagers.

Methodology: Originally realize a systematic review based on PRISMA’s protocol, then we followed by an essay discussing the correlation between social class and the physical practices of kids and teens.

Originality/relevance: The relevance of the study is to reflect on the concepts of social class and the “segregation effect”, to understand how it influences access and tastes for certain body practices, thus contributing to a better understanding of the mechanisms social actors involved in this phenomenon.

Main results: Studies shows that factors such as social class, family constitution, structure and  the  neighborhood’s security level influences the access and the type of body practice that people end up practicing. Regardless the concept of social class used by the studies, it was evident that most shows an economic view for this issue, understanding social class as just “low income class”.

Theoretical / methodological contributions: We seek to highlight the aim for researchers in the public policies field, also political agents to think not only of demographic indicators such as the HDI, but also for symbolic issues to better understand and propose actions needed at the corporal practices of children and adolescents.
