The spirit of armament in the production of (in)Security. Old-New actors in the gobernment of Jair Messias Bolsonaro

Criminal acts are disruptive events in the biography of actors. This can induce changes in practices and meanings of the world, hence the importance of their study. Focusing on the above conception, this article aims to contribute to the discussion on (in)security in Brazil. To do so, we characterise the historical development of this problem in the territory, the structure of the security forces and the main proposals for change in relation to them. In addition, we address the revaluation of former actors following the revocation of the Statute of Disarmament and the consequences that this entails. In order to achieve this objective, we used a qualitative methodology, focused on the use of secondary sources such as reports produced by official bodies and academic articles produced by brazilian researchers. Based on the above, the research question can be summarised as follows: Do the security policies of Jair Messias Bolsonaro's government imply a step backwards or an advance compared to the previous situation? Which actors are being questioned?
