RESPONDING TO BULLETS: PUBLIC SECURITY UNDER THE INTERVENTION OF WORDS INTERVIEW WITH JACQUELINE MUNIZABSTRACT
Jacqueline Muniz's interview aims to explain institutional conflicts involving 'War Power' in the face of 'Police Power' which took place through the federal intervention at Rio de Janeiro State. It also approaches the absence of protocols to define legal and legitimate use of force as well as the social effects of conflict administration in a peaceful or violent, institutional or informal manner. This text is the result of a bricolage process, which unites excerpts of different interviews with Jacqueline Muniz to TV networks and newspapers. These transcripts comprehend meaning and density (GEERTZ, 2008) of a number of subjects related to the population's demands, and also intent to intervene as little as possible between the person interviewed and the reader. From a methodological point of view, anthropological thought has guided the journalistic writing so the information is understandable, emerging from data which affect and mobilize the author (CEFAÏ, 2011) as a citizen, a woman and part of the struggle for a more just, diverse and equal society.
