O processo de implementação das políticas públicas de segurança no Brasil: uma análise sobre os planos desenvolvidos pelos governos FHC (1995-2003) até Bolsonaro (2019-2022)

Abstract

It can be possible to affirm that had a Brazilian National Program of Public Security? The objective of this paper is to analyze the process of implementation of public security policies at the federal level, considering the governments of FHC (1995-2003) to Bolsonaro (2019-2022). In this sense, it seeks to identify the limits and main problems faced in the process of (non) consolidation of public security plans in the country. Such perspective is even more important as the very strengthening of democratic institutions depends on the levels of violence, feeling of insecurity and criminality, and especially, the rationality that guides public security policies. The research methodology is characterized by its exploratory and descriptive character and carried out based on the literature review on public policies, public security policies and by the documentary analysis of security plans/programs implemented in the period from 1995 to 2022. It is concluded that public security policies in Brazil are not constituted as State policies, as they are hostages of the most varied interests that materialize in specific government policies, and are still marked by strong traces of discontinuities, an element that characterizes in a broader way most of the policies carried out in Brazil.
