This paper recovers some theoretical elements of the sociology of childhoodin the Anglo-Saxon field, to discuss their contributions, scopes and limitsabout child agency in children living in poor and urban contexts, in LatinAmerica. The objective is to contribute to the debates within the field of childhoodfrom a sociological perspective that accentuate the capacity of actionand resistance of children even in the framework of structural restrictions,without assuming a decontextualized and ideal approach about the agency.
