The purpose of this article is to present reflections on the discursive matrixes that support the discourse that presents youth as strategic development agents in the realm of the National Youth Policy. Based on a theoretical perspective and a critical discourse analysis, it analyses public documents and official discourses about the National Youth Policy, from 2005 to 2014. The analysis found the existence of two discursive matrixes that support the youth policy, which operate dialectically associated in opposition, based on contradictions between the field of rights and poverty, risk and social vulnerability.
