A formação da agenda para o controle da atividade policialo caso das câmeras corporais no estado de São Paulo e da Bahia

Resumo

This dissertation analyzes the process of agenda-setting and the dispute among political coalitions surrounding the adoption of body-worn cameras in police activity in Brazil, with a comparative focus on the cases of São Paulo and Bahia and on the inductive role of the Federal Government. The objective of the study is to understand how the body-worn camera policy was incorporated into the governmental agenda, which actors and coalitions influenced this process, and how normative, institutional, and ideological disputes shaped its design and implementation. Methodologically, the research adopts a qualitative approach based on a comparative case study, articulating a literature review, documentary analysis, semi-structured interviews with decision-makers, and reflexive thematic analysis supported by the MAXQDA software. The analytical framework combines the Multiple Streams Framework (MSF), to explain the opening of windows of opportunity in the agenda, and the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF), to understand disputes over beliefs and interests within the public security subsystem. The results indicate that the adoption of body-worn cameras did not stem from a spontaneous technical movement, but rather from a complex political process driven by high levels of police lethality, social pressure, and the production of empirical evidence, combined with favorable political contexts and mechanisms of federal inducement. The analysis reveals distinct trajectories between São Paulo, where the policy emerged from within the police institution itself, and Bahia, where the policy originated from the initiative of the state government and was strongly driven by demands from civil society and the Black movement. The findings further indicate that, once institutionalized, the policy tends to consolidate, shifting the dispute from the decision to adopt it to the manner in which it is implemented. Among the limitations of the study are the recent implementation of the policy in Bahia and the absence of direct perspectives from frontline police officers and affected communities. As a contribution, the dissertation advances theoretically by demonstrating the usefulness of articulating the MSF and the ACF in the analysis of public security policies in federative contexts marked by authoritarian legacies, and empirically by highlighting the potential of body-worn cameras as an instrument of democratic control of police activity and of confronting racially disproportionate police lethality.
