The present search intends to study the Socio-Educational Law, since the rights of children and adolescents have passed several changes throughout history which impact on the way in which adolescents who have committed an infraction are treated after the conquest of rights guaranteed by the Federal Constitution of 1988.The Child and Adolescent Statute brings the socio-educational measures to be applied to adolescents who commit an infraction, complying with a pedagogical and sanctioning character so that the under 18s can integrate and socialize in society, becoming a citizen, without, however, including the existing punitive aspect in Criminal Law. In view of this, this study seeks to study Socio-Educational Law as a protective right to adolescents, and it should be noted which socio-educational measures to be applied with greater effectiveness and in an adequate way to provide the right to their socialization and development, without recidivism in the commission of infractions. The method used for the elaboration of this work was the deductive one, realized through a bibliographical and documentary research, whose data were collected in the doctrine and legislation on the Socioeducational Right. The results showed that the Socio-Educational Law, applied through the competent Laws, presents itself as a powerful right to defend the rights of adolescents, guaranteeing the protection of those under 18 who have committed an infraction. It is concluded that the socio-educational right seeks, through protective actions, to prepare the adolescent for social interaction, without forgetting the sanctioning character, ensuring that the adolescent is held accountable for the transgression of his conduct, as well as more diverse pedagogical tools to allow the healthy and positive development of this under 18s, in reason to their special condition of developing person, favoring actions that allow their integration with the family and community.
