Aplicabilidade dos direitos humanos no contexto da segurança pública brasileira.

Abstract

Since the Middle Ages to the present days, the precepts of Human Rights are discussed and disseminated internationally. The creation of the UN and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are historic landmarks which determines contextual formation and practice of fundamental rights and guarantees. Nowadays, the scope of Human Rights in national planning is broad, and it is viewed as a means of social justice and protection of individual and political freedoms. The advent of the Federal Constitution of 1988 established parameters which differ among Human Rights defenders and it brought to a Brazilian national scene a social charging for effective public policies of public security. The debate is gaining ground nowadays, with the Police being the state authority most responsible for the protection of society in the sphere of national security. The deployment of Human Rights in the disciplinary police corps has only occurred recently and it gained an increasingly strong profile due to the increased number of summary executions, cases of torture and acts of resistance. The Executive Branch of the State as an administrator responsible for the performance and conduction of organisms responsible for Public Safety, corroborates with the crime and supports building a cynical and apathetic social vision of good governance and social protection. This monograph has as its primary objective the theoretical exposition and non-biased misconception of the Human Rights within the police, and corrupt and violent actions of the police, beyond the discretion of the executive branch and the negative influence of politics on the current context of Public Safety in Brazil.
