Militares em ação. Meia volta...volver! Desmilitarização da polícia e direito fundamental à segurança pública: análise crítica das PECS nºs 430/2009, 102/2011 e 51/2013

Abstract

Brazil has been the scene of several violent police actions, some of them under the auspices of the law and in flagrant violation of the fundamental rights, resulting in dissatisfaction and popular revolt, which is leading to the resumption of the discussions about the role of State police in relation to public safety and their militarization. This study proposed to examine the demilitarization as a possible path to the solution of problems faced by current public security. More specifically, sought to talk about the design of public safety as a fundamental right in the contemporary Brazilian scenario and reflect on how the public security is being implemented, with emphasis on activities of the military police. The methodology used for the viability of the proposed objectives consisted of a analytical-descriptive exploratory study, developed through a pure, qualitative in nature, bibliographic type research. The results revealed that the demilitarization by itself would not be the solution to the problems of public safety, but would be an important step for change in the current police structure, one of the main causes of the violent and arbitrary police action, particularly disrespecting the fundamental right of public safety.
