Abstract:Resumo Fortaleza (Ceará), como diversas cidades brasileiras, passou por um período crescente nas taxas de homicídios. Umas das explicaç ões é a chamada “guerra de facções”. A partir da pesquisada qualitativa, identifica-se que a violência armada urbana causa profundos impactos em comunidades periféricas, com estabelecimento de fronteiras invisíveis e deslocados urbanos. A pesquisa procura problematizar, no contexto da comunidade Conjunto Novo Perimetral, na periferia de Fortaleza, os limites e possibilidades no… Show more
“…The arrival of the large gangs from other regions of Brazil, such as Comando Vermelho or Primeiro Comando da Capital (Paiva, 2019 ), coincided with a sharp decrease in Workers’ Party popularity, numerous corruption scandals, Brazil's 2014 economic crisis, and the impeachment of then President Dilma Rousseff. At the community level this arrival was experienced as constant fear, forced dislocation, lack of freedom of movement between neighborhoods or between different regions of the same neighborhood, and restricted access to public infrastructure (Oliveira Silva Filho and Monteiro Mariano, 2020 ). 4…”

Based on ethnographic work conducted between 2015 and 2022 at the periphery of Fortaleza, in Northeast Brazil, this article analyzes the work of community activists as a form of subversive care. Women activists, many of whom work for the local public clinics, as social workers with local NGOs, or as schoolteachers, challenge dominant narratives presented in the media and political discourses about their neighborhood as being poor and therefore violent. By establishing relationships of mutual trust with gang members and humanizing them, women activists “challenge the logic of fear” and maintain presence in areas controlled by the gangs to direct the economically vulnerable toward existing public resources. Activists’ understanding of urban violence is informed by participation in collective action and living together with gang members and their families. These experiences lead activists to see urban violence as the symptom of systemic inequalities that require systemic changes.

“…Wendell de Freitas Barbosa, Maria Eduarda da Silva Limeira, Daniel deSouza Rocha, et al facções criminosas estabelecessem os seus próprios códigos de condutas, impedindo o direito de locomoção das comunidades em determinadas áreas de ocupação, obrigando o deslocamento forçado das suas residências em certos casos.De acordo com Silva Filho e Mariano, podemos falar que os conflitos faccionais nesses territórios têm gerado a migração de moradores nessas cidades em situação de refugiados urbanos(Silva Filho;Mariano, 2020 Mariano, , p. 1554.No retrato da paisagem urbana a presença das facções se tornou tão intensa que afeta não somente as relações sociais intersubjetivas das comunidades, mas toda uma estrutura de serviços públicos, políticas sociais e educacionais, quando a disputa territorial e as fronteiras estabelecidas comprometem o acesso da população a essas políticas. Transitar entre as zonas de conflito envolve o risco de morte, sobretudo para a população jovem vítima preferencial da violência letal.Wendell de Freitas Barbosa, Maria Eduarda da Silva Limeira, Daniel de Souza Rocha, et alWendellde Freitas Barbosa, Maria Eduarda da Silva Limeira, Daniel de Souza Rocha, et al rios no tecido urbano além dos muros das prisões.…”
O presente trabalho versa sobre a territorialização das facções criminosas no município de Juazeiro do Norte – CE. Buscando compreender a dinâmica criminal da cidade, as zonas de conflito e os bairros mais afetados por esse domínio territorial. A área mapeada concentrou-se no município de Juazeiro do Norte, foram registrados 26 bairros e 95 endereços com intuito de compreender as correlações entre bairros, endereços e facções. Com o estudo foi possível observar os bairros mais afetados por essa disputa territorial e as principais facções presentes na região. Os resultados evidenciaram a falta de um mecanismo eficaz de segurança pública adequado de políticas preventivas capaz de estimular uma diminuição da violência e do crescimento das facções a nível local. Observou-se que as áreas mais afetadas centralizaram-se nos bairros Pio XII, Pirajá, Franciscanos e Centro. Efetivamente, tal fato tem colaborado significativamente para a formação e segregação desses espaços urbanos .
