The injustices of urban securitization in the Brazilian city of Campinas

Résumé

Large metropolises, particularly in Latin America, have gone through deep transformations due to fear of violence. New urban forms-such as gated communities, deterrent architecture and security cameras-have answered the increasing demand for security. With no real prior consideration, towns such as Campinas-SP, in Brazil, have opted for a policy of video surveillance and the construction of buildings which incite segregation and stifle individual freedoms. But if this movement has led to increased security for some, it has also encouraged the militarization and privatization of public space, leading to injustices and even further insecurity to others.
