IRB protocol # 13-0015 ii Scott, Jason Bartholomew (Ph.D., Anthropology) Pacified Inclusion: Security Policy, Social Networks, and Rio de Janeiro’s Favelas Thesis Directed by Professor Donna M. Goldstein Dissertation Abstract This dissertation addresses the connections between everyday violence and digital technology. I describe three years of ethnographic research concerning a community policing program called “pacificação ” (pacification) in a Brazilian favela (shanty town). Alongside supporting a permanent police force that destabilized a powerful drug faction, pacification policy endorsed a wide range of social projects and dramatically reshaped the relationship between the Brazilian State and its marginalized citizens. Among the social projects associated with pacification were a number of “inclusão digital” (digital inclusion) programs that combined technical literacy with critical political literacy in the hope of disrupting exclusionary conditions. During my observations of these programs, I found what I call a hidden politics of digital reproduction. Rather than disrupting the pacified favela’s social conditions, as proponents of digital inclusion suggested, technology disguised and reproduced longstanding forms of oppression. I recount several examples of digital inclusion’s hidden politics including technology corporations that used a discourse of disruption to promote middleclass consumerism in the favela and police who appropriated the rhetoric of social media activist to distract from human rights abuses. In considering these hidden politics of digital reproduction, my theoretical discussion informs anthropological scholarship concerning violence, a modern information society, and democracy in marginalized urban communities. iii Dedication Seventy-four residents of the Complexo were killed during shootouts over the course my research. These deaths include mothers, fathers, taxi-drivers, and students. For many, neighbors only knew the nickname of the dead. Others were teenage drug traffickers who police could not identify. My friend, Betinho Casas Novas, recorded their names: Gabriel Ferreira Carvalho, Lucas Gustavo da Silva Lourenço, Dalva Arlindo de Assis, Caio Moraes da Silva, Catia Valeria Borges Alves, Antonio França, Matheus Alexandre Silva dos Santos, Anderson de Souza, Alexandre Dias, Marcus Helleno, Adriano Leite, Cesinha, Felipe, “Magrinho”, Rafael Coelho da Costa, Dona Emilia, Andre Luiz, Fernando Anselmo, Pessoa “Não Identificado”, Lucas Soares, Vanessa Abcassis dos Santos, Felipe Passos, Elizabeth de Moura Francisco, Rodrigo “Farinha”, Matheus Gomes Lima, Eduardo de Jesus Ferreira, Ramires Alencar, Jackson 'Paulista', Josimar Oliveira da Silva, “Não Identificado, “Não Identificado”, Wellington Marcelino, Fábio Monteiro, Matheus “Charope", “Meia Noite”, Pedro Henrique, Deyverson Avelino, Patrick da Silva de Souza, Carla Cristina Silva, Junior Santos, Ygor Quirino Lope, Emerson Tadeu Alvino, Aguinaldo José de Nascimento, Rafael Oliveira, Elaine Cristina, Ângelo de Oliveira Pereira, Roseli de Jesus, Edvan Melo dos Santos, Zé Bideu, Wallace Martins, Darlene da Silva Gonçalve, Babuino Luan, Davidson, Emerson Davi, “Não Identificado”, Leandro Motta Soares, “Não Identificado”, “Não Identificado”, Nilza “Tia Neném”, “Desconhecido”, “Desconhecido”, “Desconhecido”, Vinicius Freire, “Traficante Sem ID”, “Traficante Sem ID”, “Traficante Sem ID”, Ibra, “Traficante Sem ID”, Luiz Fernando de Jesus Melo, Gustavo de Souza, Bruno Silva, “Não identificado: Traficante”, Paulo Henrique de Oliveira, Felipe Farias, and Marinete Menezes Berto, and Kizumba. Alongside these names, there were an equal number of residents wounded by gunfire. The iv youngest victim was three years old and the oldest was seventy-eight years old. To borrow a phrase from the Complexo’s activist community, these individuals are “ presente ” (present) throughout my research. v Acknowledgements I thank the numerous NGOs and activists who offered me a critical space to observe Brazil. The Complexo-based NGOs Oca dos Curumins, Voz das Comunidade, and Raiz em Movimento were particularly central to my research. As a gringo from the Midwest United States, daily life in the Complexo often felt isolating. These NGOs and their members invited me into their lives and made me feel at home. Outside of the Complexo, the Committee for Digital Inclusion put me in touch with hundreds of Brazilians and international collaborators including street level activists in rural Brazil and multinational corporations. O Colectivo Digital, a São Paulo based NGO, wrote letters of support for me to government institutions and universities on two continents and in two languages. There were also dozens of other NGOs, both large and small, that opened their doors to me over the course of my research. I support their goals and hope that the world is positively changed by their vision. Countless teachers guided me through this research. Donna Goldstein inspired me to find humor in a grim place and showed me how to read the world. Rosemary Segurado gave me a chance to present my work to the Brazilian academy by writing letters of support and offering her classroom for me to present my research. My doctoral committee, including Carole McGranahan, Kaifa Roland, Rob Buffington, and Andrew Calabrese, gave me much needed notes. The Department of Education’s Fulbright-Hays Program assisted this research with a generous, year-long dissertation grant. The Department of Anthropology at the University of Colorado at Boulder provided numerous small grants to help with preliminary and follow up work. Colorado’s CARTSS Program also provided me with a generous grant which vi sustained my first month of preliminary research. Graduate Teacher Program employed me, guided me professionally, and offered essential peer support while I was in Boulder. Family and friends gave me comfort during a demanding time of my life, where I relocated at least ten times in as many years and found myself challenged both professionally and spiritually. Maria Ramos opened her home to me and traveled long hours by city bus every few days to make sure I felt safe. Her love has been a constant throughout this project. There were also a number of individuals who put a roof over my head. When making monthly trip to São Paulo to meet with NGOs and academics, Lais Manzalli honored a standing invitation for me to sleep on her couch. Two hostels, LimeTime and Lisetonga, also gave me weeks of free room and board while I looked for my path off from the gringo trail. My mother and father allowed me to live with them while I waited for Brazil’s complex bureaucracy to deliver a string of research visas. vii Table of Contents Page Introduction ……………………………………............................................................ 1—33 Chapter One ……………………………………............................................................ 34—69 Chapter Two……………………………………............................................................. 70—103 Chapter Three……………………………………......................................................... 104--138 Chapter Four……………………………………........................................................... 139--174 Chapter Five……………………………………............................................................ 175--205 Chapter Six…………………………………….............................................................. 206--232 Chapter Seven…………………………………….......................................................... 233--263 Conclusion……………………………………................................................................ 264--275 Bibliography………………………………………………………………………………………………. 276--295 viii Introduction … This dissertation looks at the relationship between digital technology and security policy in marginalized communities. I describe a group of social media activists from a favela (shantytown) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, named the Complexo do Alemão. I carried out three years of ethnographic research during a time in which the Complexo was known as Rio’s most violent and impoverished favela (2014–2016). Brazil’s federal government had recently installed a community policing policy called pacificação (pacification) that destabilized the Complexo's imperialistic drug gang, formalized a largely informal economy, and expanded social infrastructure. Inclusão digital (digital inclusion) projects played a notable role in the Complexo’s pacificação . A vanguard of online activists received backing from multinational corporations, international NGOs, and government ministries, acting as examples of digitally- included citizens who could connect a pacified favela with a global network society. Through ethnographic observation, I found that the disruptive and utopic potentials

Abstract Shooting the Morro: Favela Documentaries and the Politics of Meaning Spencer Winston Stoner, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2013 Supervisor: Lorraine Leu To many in the global North, the favelas of Rio de Janeiro are the most visible face of violence and poverty in Brazil. While the favela film genre (and its subset, the favela documentary) has received significant study, there is a gap in understanding how these filmic texts are created as a result of individual production processes. How do decisions made during the course of production translate into imaginaries, representations, and on-screen content? This research locates multiple forms of non- fiction video within the wider context of mediated representations of poverty and violence in favelas, identifying the tools, mechanisms, and specific tactics employed by both favela stakeholders and production personnel in the co-production of these often heavily-mediated images. Utilizing key informant interviews with Rio-based documentary production personnel actively shooting in favelas, this research highlights specific production processes to understand how implicit incentive structures embodied in production shape and influence representations of the favela space.

  • No Olho Do Furacão: Protagonismo E Incerteza Nas Jornadas De Junho De 2013
    No olho do furacão: protagonismo e incerteza nas Jornadas de Junho de 2013 Ricardo Fabrino Mendonça Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) Júlia Moreira de Figueiredo Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) Este artigo discute a percepção que ativistas das Jornadas de Junho de 2013 têm sobre sua participação em tais protestos. Ele parte da literatura contemporânea sobre confronto político e organizações de movimentos sociais para abordar a forma singularizada como sujeitos projetam a si mesmos e a seus coletivos como protagonistas de um evento que é caótico e gigantesco. Em diálogo com os debates sobre ação conectiva e sobre o crescente questionamento de estruturas hierarquizadas de organização política, o texto explora o modo como muitos sujeitos se colocam no centro de acontecimentos que eles mesmos reconhecem os terem atropelado. A partir de 50 entrevistas realizadas em São Paulo e Belo Horizonte, aborda-se essa ambivalência paradoxal entre o ser atropelado pela história e o ser dela protagonista. Não se deseja argumentar que tal ambivalência seja fruto de um narcisismo individualista, mas que a grandiosidade disruptiva representada por Junho emerge, justamente, dessa articulação reticular de protagonismos.
