“…Favelas, like other spatial structures that either reflect or run parallel to economic, political, and social systems (Gomes 2002;Marinho and Schor 2009), are considered "entrenched facts of social life that have their autonomous (or at least relatively autonomous) logics and that determine or at least tightly constrain social action" (Swell 2001, 54). of favelas are renowned for enabling their inhabitants, including those involved in criminal activities, to adeptly navigate their narrow pathways, while outsiders, including the police, often face considerable difficulties in moving around (Conceição 2015). The proximity of houses in favelas, often constructed closely together, and in some cases even on top of one another, may foster a profound sense of shared identity and community.…”

This article examines the dynamics of crime governance and social mobilization in Brazil’s impoverished communities to answer why residents of favelas mobilize against state interventions while seemingly accepting the rule of organized criminal groups (OCGs). Previous studies have primarily explored the materialistic hypothesis or the role of coercion and fear in shaping community behavior. This article employs the tools provided by the literature on contentious politics and a qualitative meta-analysis to systematically assess the varied ways in which OCGs interact with the state and favela residents, mapping the heterogeneous effects produced as a result. The findings suggest that in favelas where criminal organizations are perceived as benign, residents may rely on them to fulfill basic needs, while the state is seen as an outsider that brings disruption of routines and violence. In favelas where criminal organizations are malign, there are few incentives for change as the outcomes of challenging OCGs are uncertain.

“…Having police officers among their ranks is one of their most important sources of legitimacy. Many residents of occupied communities would still rather have them instead of drug dealers, mainly because milicianos are seen as more orderly (Conceição, 2016).…”

Eu fui capaz de escrever essa tese graças ao auxílio, direto ou indireto, de muitas pessoas.A esses familiares, amigos, professores e colegas das Ciências Sociais, dedico o meu muito obrigado. Agradeço especialmente: À minha orientadora, Maria Celina D'Araújo, que me apoia e incentiva constantemente desde 2017. Celina sempre me ajudou em tudo, de aspectos burocráticos a questões de pesquisa. Sem a sua orientação, eu não seria o cientista político que sou hoje.A meu co-orientador, Thiago Moreira, que me guiou pelo percurso quantitativo que venho trilhando desde 2018. Sem suas críticas e sugestões, a escrita dessa tese seria impossível.A Jean Daudelin, que me orientou durante a minha passagem pela Carleton University, em Ottawa, no doutorado-sanduíche, e acompanhou os primeiros passos dessa tese.Aos professores Cesar Zucco, Jean Daudelin, Angela Paiva e Paulo Durán, que tão prontamente aceitaram participar da banca de defesa.Ao professor Luiz Werneck Vianna, com quem eu cursei meia dúzia de disciplinas, e que foi importante na minha formação nos seis anos que passei na PUC.Aos funcionários da secretaria do departamento de Ciências Sociais da PUC-Rio, Ana, Aline e Monica, que cuidam de tudo para que nós estudantes foquemos em nossas pesquisas.Aos amigos de team Celina, Guilherme, Julia, Juliana e Ivan, pelas parcerias em trabalhos já concluídos e pelas que estão por vir.A meus colegas do Cecomp, coordenado pelo professor Mario Fuks, pelos debates sobre comportamento político e pelos comentários em versões prévias dessa tese.A Capes, pela bolsa de doutorado e pela bolsa sanduíche, cruciais para a minha manutenção na pós-graduação e para a escrita desse trabalho.A meus pais, Marco e Marlene, que são a pedra fundamental que me permitiu chegar até aqui; e a meus avós, Gilda e Joel, que sempre me acompanharam e torceram por mim.
