Segurança, Biopolítica e Educação: o empresariamento da segurança pública como dispositivo pedagógico

Abstract

From the work of Michel Foucault and facing the emergence of a society of (in) security, this paper sought to understand how it was possible to establish the paradigm of business management as the only possible model of efficiency for public policies in general and, specifically, for the field of Brazilian public security. Them, based on the analysis of the ideas and theories present in the new programs and plans for the reduction of homicides installed in several Brazilian states, its pedagogical effects on public security operators, generically called police officers, as well as on individuals of the population, target of the (bio)policies in question, were investigated. This public security entrepreneurship and processes of subjectivation that it triggers have been problematized, which occurs through pedagogical apparatus– non-formal education mechanisms that operates in a continuous, uninterrupted and open-air way – that, by producing police subjectivities, produce new lifestyles, new relationships of subjects with themselves and with others, as well as new arrangements between individuals, the State and the market.
