Conflict of interest: none Introduction: traffic accidents are one of the main causes of death and disability, with motorcyclists representing the great majority of both the victims and the perpetrators. Objective: this work studied the characteristics of motorcyclists injured in accidents involving motorcycles and automobiles. Method: this study sought to interview 100 motorcyclists who had been injured in collisions between motorcycles and automobiles, and who were undergoing emergency hospital treatment in the region of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The questionnaires included demographic information (age, gender, skin color, education level, profession) and questions about years of licensed driving practice, how often they would drive an automobile, how long they had had a motorcycle driver's license, how often they would ride a motorcycle, the number of prior accidents involving a car, and the number of prior accidents not involving a car. Results: of the 100 consecutive accidents studied, 91 occurred with men and 9 with women, aged between 16 and 79 (m = 29 ± 11) years. Regarding their reason for using a motorcycle, 83% reported using it for transport, 7% for work, and 10% for leisure. Most of these accident victims had secondary or higher education (47%). Of the motorcyclists who held a car driver's license, 68.3% drove the vehicle daily or weekly and held the license for more than one year. Sixty-seven percent of the accident victims used a motorcycle daily and had a motorcycle driver's license for at least one year. Conclusion: among the motorcyclists injured, most were men aged 20 years or older, with complete secondary education, and experienced in driving both motorcycles and cars, indicating that recklessness while driving the motorcycle is the main cause of traffic accidents.

“…São Luís (MA) teve a maior elevação (+31,6%). E ainda, conforme Waiselfisz (2015), o levantamento, ao mesmo tempo, calculou as taxas de mortalidade, na população total, de 1.669 municípios com mais de 20 mil habitantes no país. Para evitar que eventos isolados tenham peso desproporcional nas estatísticas municipais, o Mapa trabalha, para esses municípios, com a média de mortes por armas de fogo dos três últimos anos com dados disponíveis, isto é, 2010, 2011 e 2012.…”

Resumo: A violência é compreendida como um conjunto de eventos individuais, sociais, econômicos e culturais, historicamente a acompanhar a humanidade. Ela está associada à intencionalidade, constituindo-se em agravo previsível, e a Psicologia tem importante responsabilidade em sua prevenção. Este estudo analisou a magnitude e a tendência da mortalidade por homicídios ocorridos no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil, no período de 2009 a 2014. Os óbitos por homicídios foram obtidos por meio do Sistema de Informações Policiais da Secretaria de Defesa Social de Pernambuco. Utilizou-se o desenho ecológico exploratório do tipo série temporal. No período, ocorreram 20.891 óbitos por homicídios em Pernambuco; cerca de 56,1% deles ocorreram no grupo de 15 a 29 anos de idade; houve diferencial no risco de mortalidade segundo sexo e faixa etária. Ainda é difícil de avaliar possíveis resultados e impactos sobre o tema da Justiça Restaurativa, por ser novo e por não ter sido originalmente um modelo criado no cenário brasileiro. As ações específicas devem voltar-se, principalmente, à população de adolescentes e adultos jovens, visto que esses contingentes vêm mantendo os altos níveis de mortalidade por homicídios no estado; destaca-se a necessidade de políticas públicas efetivas para a prevenção à violência. Palavras-chave:Homicídios, Violência, Justiça Restaurativa, Socioeducação. Analysis of Homicides in Pernambuco and the Contributions of Restorative JusticeAbstract: Violence is associated with intentionality, constituting a predictable offense, and psychology has an important responsibility in prevention, being violence understood as a set of individual, social, economic and cultural events that have historically accompanied humanity. This study examined the magnitude and trend of mortality from homicides in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil, from 2009 to 2014. Deaths by homicide were obtained from the System Information Officers of the Social Defense Secretariat of Pernambuco. We used the exploratory ecological model of the time series type. In the period, there were 20,891 deaths from homicides in Pernambuco; about 56.1% of them occurred in the group 15-29 years of age; there was difference in the risk of mortality by sex and age group. Regarding the theme of restorative justice, being new and not having originally been a model created in the Brazilian scenario, is still difficult to assess possible outcomes and impacts. Specific actions must turn mainly to the population of adolescents and young adults, since these groups have maintained high levels of homicide mortality in the state. The need for effective public policies to prevent violence is highlighted.

“…In other words, 29 children per day are murdered in Brazil (2013) [44]. Alarmingly, a 2010-2012 study by Waiselfisz also reveals that, on average, youth murders by firearms are 285% higher than for the rest of the population, meaning that for every four children or teenagers killed by gun violence, only one person from the rest of the population died the same way [45].…”

As Rio de Janeiro struggles to hold itself together through the Games of the XXXI Olympiad, its much lauded public security Games plan, including its highly controversial police pacification program-long promoted as one of the cornerstones of Rio's Olympic legacy-descends into a state of near total collapse. This paper takes an intimate look at what is likely the last days of this contentious pacification policy, the part it plays in the wider 'Games Security Plan', and how and why it has been implemented in the lead up to the 2016 Summer Olympics.
