Abstract
As Rio de Janeiro struggles to hold itself together through the Games of the XXXI Olympiad, its much lauded public security Games plan, including its highly controversial police pacification program—long promoted as one of the cornerstones of Rio’s Olympic legacy—descends into a state of near total collapse. This paper takes an intimate look at what is likely the last days of this contentious pacification policy, the part it plays in the wider ‘Games Security Plan’, and how and why it has been implemented in the lead up to the 2016 Summer Olympics.
期刊介绍：
The goal of Journal of Human Security is to disseminate applied research into a secure and sustainable future for humanity. It continues the Australasian Journal of Human Security. Journal of Human Security endeavours to: - Provide a forum for researchers to foster interdisciplinary inquiry in broad human security issues such as track two diplomacy, ethnic conflict, terrorism, religious extremism, human rights, demographic change, population health, human ecology, sustainable economics and related areas. - Inform readers about upcoming events, ongoing and new research projects, trends and discussions, newly published monographs, and available scholarships. - Encourage a multidisciplinary approach to issues that have traditionally been viewed as mostly unidisciplinary. - Maintain an appeal to a wide readership with both high academic standards and close relevance to practice. - Meet international standards of excellence.
