3 Thought Process on my “Question”. Why should pacification be the means of security in marginalized groups. Given as an example as a glocal concern in Brazil? Can pacification be a long term solution to better aid the civil society?

4 Definitions What is a favela? – According to Merriam-Webster, a settlement of jerry-built shacks lying on the outskirts of a Brazilian city or as the global community refers to is as a slum. What is pacification? – According to Merriam-Webster, the act of forcibly suppressing or eliminating a population considered to be hostile What is the goal of pacification? – The Pacification units’ mission is to maintain control of Favela territory once the local drug trade has been expelled. – The Pacification Police are meant to be a “community police” force, meaning that after the favela is “pacified” and after a UPP center is installed in the neighborhood, the officers are meant to cooperate with the community in order to make police work more efficient, and to act, in a sense, as agents of social development.

5 Why the adoption of Pacification Short Term or Long Term Implications ?

7 Identification Who is affected in the context of this situation and How? – The state – The UPP (Pacifying Police Unit) – The people living within the favela The Innocent The Drug Dealers

8 The State Versus The people The State and Policies The People in the favelas

9 Glocal Concerns -Transnational security Drugs The number of seizure cases involving Brazil as a transit country increased tenfold in the past four years, from 25 tons in 2005 to 260 tons in 2009. Only 15 percent of South America’s cocaine destined for the U.S. and Europe travels through Brazil. Human trafficking Brazil is also a destination country for victims of human trafficking, and there is internal trafficking of Brazilians for exploitation within the country’s borders as well. Arms A recent arms trafficking report noting that Brazil’s border control is “far from satisfactory” has prodded the government to pursue new initiatives such as doubling troops along the entire Brazilian border Corruption Very Transparent to all

10 Outcome of Pacification Social Programs Security Housing and Health Care Jobs Education Negatives of Pacification Displacement of people Opportunities for the states Implications of pacification long term? Cooperative Corruption

11 Media Response Social Media Blogging YouTube Protest Official Interviews Testimonies http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpa ge&v=mzF9C6EvLgw

12 Online Community Responses

13 Recommendations How can the state address the officer attitudes? What programs can the state provide to create a inclusive Brazil? Why the resistance from the people? Can pacification actually be a long term program?
