Abstract

The Public Security issue is one of the most complex challenges in our society, due to the coordination required between public power and civil society, as emphasized in the 1988 Federal Constitution itself. The State has implemented some programs and basic investment operations, with the objective of solving the problem of increasing violence. However, even with the relevance of these investments, it has been insufficient to fight crime, due to the complexity of the factors that interfere in its occurrence. From this perspective, it is necessary to consider the dynamics of the territory and its different uses, as a geographic heuristic angle that allows spatializing the phenomena of violence and thinking about them articulated with territorial qualities, endowing the territory as a relevant factor in the quest to guarantee the right to security. Based on this insight, the present work aims to understand how the territorial approach of public policies can constitute a possibility of an instrument for the implementation of the public security fundamental right, using the State of Piauí as reference. This research constitutes an interdisciplinary perspective between the areas of Law and Geography. In order to meet the objectives of this study, a bibliographic search was carried out on books, periodicals, scientific articles, based on the following authors: Bucci (2002), Pamplona (2016), Antas Junior (2017), among others. Guiding this analyzes, it was used the categories of the Used Territory and the Standardized Territory developed by the geographer Milton Santos (2006). It was found that considering the dynamics of the territory, from its different uses, as a geographic heuristic angle that allows spatializing the phenomena of violence and thinking about them articulated with territorial qualities is a relevant factor in the search for the elaboration of more efficient security policies and consistent with the reality of the territories.
