| Sumario: | This article analyses the narratives about work and vocation with which police subjectivity is shaped. The aim is to evidence the images around themselves and others that are built by police officers in service that belonged to the Policía Federal Argentina and were transferred to the Policía de la Ciudad. To do this, in-depth interviews are conducted with three officers and their visions are focused through discourse analysis. The stories show beliefs that, although they are based on the imaginary about community service, coincide in conceiving the profession as a job, especially since the police stopped belonging to the Policía Federal. This moment is “revealing” in the biographies because of their adherence to a group from which they felt expelled and because of the symbolic value they attribute to the institution to which they no longer belong. |
