Description
Summary:This paper describes the relationship between the development of community policing as a public security policy and the use of this project by the military police apparatus to justify forms of state control in the city of João Pessoa, Paraíba.It is based on data obtained through direct observation and participant and semi-structured interviews carried out during the years 2012- 2014 with military police officers (Squares and Officers) who participated in the community police project, entitled solidarity policing. It concludes that the institutional discourse about the project conceals forms of violence that end up refining state control through a results policy based on the reduction of homicides to the detriment of social policies that can improve the real conditions of the places where the project was implemented.
