Keywords:
violence, actor-network theory, technologies of vigilance and control, public policiesAbstract
This article discusses the way technologies of violence and control are used as a strategy to manage violence, following attentively the installation of electronic vigilance cameras’ project in the city of Chapecó. The ethnographic study comprised the investigation of four regional newspapers during a year, 31 interviews, the collecting of 32 documents and the participant observation with daily field notes. The description of the events permits to identify the link between the category of violence and the damages inflicted to public and private patrimony and its connection to the new technologies of violence and control, established upon the mediation of three other categories: protection, security and prevention. The study proposes to contribute to the discussion of the subject of violence in contemporaneity from the analysis of networks that aim to safety production, allowing us to understand and rethink social practices and public policies.Downloads
