Justice and Public Security in Brazil

The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with a link between fundamental themes of justice and security that make it a special book, as it brings the debate on the management of public justice and security policies closer to the process of municipalisation of political decision-making, allowing us to think of alternatives to the obstacles of the current management model. The starting point arises from the importance and need to question the old and think of more effective alternatives for controlling public policies that involve the interface of the justice and security systems. The indispensable issue that articulates the texts, beyond the field of theoretical analysis, is the need to deepen legal research. The authors strive to show that, in the construction of consistent understandings of public justice and security policies, the scientific approach plays an important role in understanding the processes that culminate in the rational and collective choice of priorities for defining the public interests recognised in the Democratic State of Law.
