| Zusammenfassung: | This chapter examines the ways in which members of the Antifascism Police Movement recognize the notion of working police as a political and utopian struggle in the context of public security policies in Brazil.

Based on ethnographic interviews, document, and media analysis, this chapter argues that the affirmation of the working conditions by police officers positions them in a reformist approach that challenges the authoritarian and militaristic hegemonic approaches inside security forces in Brazil. |
