Resumo: This dissertation aims to understand how young students of a technical high school relate to leisure spaces around the school. The research shows how these young people live their experiences in the everyday school life and also in their free time in a big metropolis. The locus of this study was the technical high school called CEFET-MG, campus I, located at Amazonas Avenue in Belo Horizonte. The theoretical approach was based in the human andsocial sciences, in particular the studies of sociology of youth and social psychology. It focused in understanding some of the meanings printed in the phenomena that involved youthand the studied reality. The ethnography was the methodology chosen and it made possible to discern the meanings attributed to the youth practices of regularly visiting pubs around the school. Such visits begun when the students were getting familiar with the school, initiatingthemselves to pubs and to alcohol beverages. This data provoked reflections related to generation factors that are the background of this study. The data collected pointed to a diversity of reasons to be in the pubs at different times of the day (before, during and after school). Drinking, for some of the students, was a rite of passage of the youth culture. Regarding this point, the pubs were configured as places for seduction and danger, becoming important experiences for the students. Beyond that, the pubs were characterized as a masculine territory which indicated possible relationships between street and virility. Finally, this research proposes that this discussion cannot be narrowed down to an analysis of the risks that the students take in this kind of activity. There is a more complex web of relations in this context. Therefore, ethnography proved to be the correct choice as the methodology for this study. It allowed new views and interpretations in the established relationships among the students, the pubs and the school. Such configuration goes beyond the notion of Order and Disorder in the complexity field.
