“…The rapid and disorganized growth of the city during the 1950s along with the intense process of urban migration and housing deficit contributed to the further development of more favelas (Oliveira 2012). Government improvement programs since the 1980s have allowed favelas to become more integrated into the rest of the city.…”

Street drug markets beyond favelas in Belo Horizonte, Brazil

This study examines whether social disorganization mechanisms that explain clusters of street drug markets in socially disorganized neighborhoods in developed countries can also help explain geographical patterns of drug dealing across neighborhoods in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Data for this study includes drug arrests from 2007 to 2011 and socio demographic data from the 2010 Census. To examine the influence of exploratory variables on drug market locations, the Negative Binominal regression model was used at two levels of analysis-the Belo Horizonte city center and other neighborhoods including favelas. The findings show that a high hot spot of street drug markets located in the city center is positively associated with housing quality as well as negatively associated with residential tenure. Low hot spots were found in remaining neighborhoods, including impoverished areas of favelas and are related to key social disorganization indicators such as socio-economic status, age at risk, and residential tenure. This study has important implications for crime prevention policies and provides the basis for further comparative research on street drug markets across many different countries. © 2015 Oliveira et al.

“…Isso não significava a não mobilização em conjunto com os sindicatos, em temas considerados prioritários. Em 1962, por exemplo, a Federação dos Trabalhadores Favelados de Belo Horizonte (FTFBH) fez campanha pelo salário-família que seria instituído no governo João Goulart (1961Goulart ( -1962 e participou da campanha contra a carestia de alimentos organizada por sindicatos mineiros (OLIVEIRA, 2010 As associações de defesa coletiva difundiram-se para outras favelas e colocavam em pauta a forma de se apropriar do espaço urbano. Auxiliados por advogados-políticos de esquerda e padres, as lideranças do associativismo colocavam em pauta o direito de moradia contra o processo de especulação imobiliária em curso.…”

“…Ademais, para além do "pragmatismo" pessoal, é importante salientar que no âmbito do movimento dos "trabalhadores favelados" organizados pela FTFBH, assim como nos sindicatos e na luta pela reforma agrária em Minas Gerais, existia uma união entre as esquerdas comunista, trabalhista e católica. As trajetória das lideranças no movimento de "trabalhadores favelados" sinalizam para a heterogeneidade de posições políticas articuladas no associativismo civil em pauta (OLIVEIRA, 2010).…”

O artigo aborda a luta contra a ameaça de remoção do Morro do Querosene nas décadas de 1950 e 1960. A partir da entrevista de Vicente Gonçalves, discute-se o discurso para reivindicar o direito de moradia no movimento social articulado em torno do Centro de Defesa Coletiva do Morro do Querosene e da Federação dos Trabalhadores Favelados de Belo Horizonte. A análise enfoca o trabalho de linguagem do entrevistado, cotejando-o com jornais, documentos apreendidos pela polícia política de Minas Gerais (DOPS-MG) e legislação da época.

“…Nonlicensed street vendors, the homeless population, beggars, and abandoned youths took over the streets and crime was on the rise. Additionally, crime and violence were on the rise, particularly related to the problem of illegal drug activity which traditionally prevails in impoverished and socio-disorganized urban environments of favelas in large Brazilian cities (De Souza 2010;Oliveira 2012;Sapori, Sena, and Silva 2012;Beato and Zilli 2012;Silva 2014;Oliveira, Silva, and Prates 2015). Embedded in the disorderly landscape of these communities, and hidden by its hilly terrain and infinite mazes of alleyways, the buying and selling of marijuana and cocaine expanded uncontrollably.…”

This study assesses the reliability of Google Street View (GSV) in auditing environmental features that help create hotbeds of drug dealing in Belo Horizonte, one of Brazil's largest cities. Based on concepts of "crime generators" and "crime enablers," a set of 40 items were selected using arrest data related to drug activities for the period between 2007 and 2011. These items served to develop a GSV data collection instrument used to observe features of 135 street segments that were identified as drug dealing hot spots in downtown Belo Horizonte. The study employs an intra-class correlation (ICC) statistics as a measure of reliability. The study showed mixed findings regarding agreement on some features among raters. One on hand, the observer's lack of familiarity with the local culture and street dynamics may pose a challenge with regards to identifying environmental features. On the other hand, factors such as image quality, objects that obstruct the view, and the overlooking of addresses that are not officially registered also decrease the reliability of the instrument. We conclude that a combination of tools and strategies should be applied to make the use of GSV truly reliable in the field of international criminological research.
