Abstract

This study analyzes some of the modalities of criminal governance by means of a comparison between the different configurations of local power found in the favelas in the region of Maré, in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro. The aim is to go beyond the limits of the territory originally considered in the study “Social Impacts of Exposure to Armed Violence in Maré” by adding to it the available information about the popular universe of Rio de Janeiro state. Our intention is to propose some interpretative hypotheses that engage in dialog with the traditions of studies on power and inequalities in Brazilian society.
