Segurança cidadã: formas de envolvimento e propensão do cidadão à coprodução de segurança pública no Distrito Federal

Abstract

This study identified the forms of citizen involvement in public security, considering the activities performed by citizens and their propensity to co-produce public safety in the Federal District. In a qualitative-descriptive study, 82 semi-structured interviews were carried out with 22 engaged citizens and 60 non-engaged in formal safety coproduction mechanisms. In order to analyze data, a content analysis was carried out using theoretical saturation. It is seen that the citizens interviewed in the study contribute to security through preventive and repressive actions and the forms of co-production identified were informational, political, economic, social, preventive and repressive. Seven categories were identified that would make uninvolved citizens more likely to contribute to security, expanding the understanding about the phenomenon of public safety coproduction.
