AGUIRRE RODRIGUEZ, Lina María  e  CAMARGO GONZALEZ, Ignacio. Social policy for children in scenes of violence: the case of FANVI in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, 2011-2014. Región y sociedad [online]. 2017, vol.29, n.69, pp.31-68. ISSN 2448-4849.  https://doi.org/10.22198/rys.2017.69.a298.

The objective of this article is to understand, from the perspective of the actor, the implementation of a trust called Fund for the Care of Boys and Girls, Children of the Victims of the Fight against Crime (FANVI, acronym in Spanish). Using the approach of grounded theory, unstructured interviews with mothers (widows) and grandmothers of the children included or marginalized in this policy were conducted. The main results were: many children who were eligible for program assistance were excluded due to informal arrangements of civil servants; grandmothers and biological mothers had to face the dilemma of maintaining or transferring legal custody of children; and the mass media profited from the pain of these families and, secondarily, they exhibited deficiencies when implementing this program in a context of structural and criminal violence.

Palavras-chave : evaluation of public policies; social action programs; crime prevention; grounded theory; orphans; victims of crime; organized crime; violent crime; exclusion error; Ciudad Juarez.
