article "Country struggles to rise to sporting occasions" by Harvey Morris (2010) discusses some of the initial fears about crime in Brazil affecting these events. It is a major achievement for a Latin
American Country to host these events, however, the crime in Brazil continues to preoccupy event organizers, participants and tourists (Morris, 2010). Particularly the author (Morris, 2010) cites high rates of violent crime as well as some of the "bloody" tactics that the police in Brazil use to counter the crime. Morris (2010) briefly discusses part of Brazil's plan to combat crime by increasing the number of military police in Rio as well as improving the training of civil police.

information. In the article "The battle for peace in the slums" published in June 2012, the author, Andrew
Purcell, states that although Brazil has become the sixth-largest economy in the world it still ranks 84th on the UN Human Development Index (p.78). This article then goes on to explore crime in the favelas around Rio including a current discussion on the four main gangs in the city (Purcell, 2012). Finally, this article brings in the importance of the upcoming World Cup in Brazil in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016 as a motivation for Brazil to continue to reduce crime (Purcell, 2012).

the information on this page. It takes an in-depth look at the current methods being used by the police in Rio de
Janeiro to eliminate crime, especially in the favelas (Margolis, 2011). The author (Margolis, 2011) credits Josa Beltrame for denouncing the old-boy network of corrupt cops that participated in crime in Brazil and for focusing on eliminating crime and violence in the Rio. This article cites current statistics about the drop in crime as well as acknowledges that crime still threatens to "derail" Brazil's incredible economic growth and stability (Margolis, 2011, p.0).

The article "Brazil's Top Cop; Josa
Mariano Beltrame did what everybody in Rio de Janeiro thought impossible--pacify two of the city's most drug-infested, crime-ridden favelas. Welcome to the shantytown counterinsurgency" by Mac Margolis published in May 2011 is another good article that can update

comes from any relative. Second, the BBC article linked in the sources use a quote from Dilma
Rousseff to claim that 15 women are killed daily in Brazil, that's a female homicide rate that has nothing to do with domestic violence, also, it's not possible to know which study she's talking about, and
943:
The statement "It is believed that most life-threatening crime in Brazil can be traced back to drug trade and alcoholism" is highly dubious. Foirst of all, the first link does not work, and the second refers to crack cocaine. It gives the impression that most of the murders in Brazil are linked to

drugs and alcoholism, which is not correct. There are many deaths linked to pure robberies. And when talking about deaths related to drugs, the most important factor is mostr likely disuputes in gangs. My suggestion is to simply delete this statement, but I prefer to add this comment here first.

One of the most important updates that can be made to this page about crime in Brazil is the addition of a paragraph or section about the huge international sporting events that will take place in Brazil in the upcoming years. Brazil will host the World Cup in 2014 and the
Olympics in 2016. The
852:. I plan on adding as much information as I can find to this. I also will plan on editing the page as a whole from making it more neutral to grammatical errors. My plans for the next few weeks are to read the articles that I have added to this page and finalize my section about juvenile crime.
755:
One way to improve this article would be to update some of the information that it gives as well as go into more detail about the specific information. Much of the information in the article dates back to 2010 or earlier. As 2012 draws to a close it would be a good time to update some of the

is also about female homicides and should not be in the domestic violence section. The conclusion is that all sources in the domestic violence section are either biased or don't talk about about domestic violence at all. This section should be completely removed and reformulated.

From #Crime dynamics: "The UPP program has so far proven its worth by significantly reducing the number of homicides, while also reducing violent crime rates in general. Local residents are mostly positive about the program and an overwhelming number of residents felt safer."

It is not a reliable source just because Bureau of
Consular Affairs states it. What is normal and low level of crime? How they measured that Brazil has very high level of crime? Brazil has a very high level of crime compared to what? We need the criteria

1146:. In international crime rankings however, Brazil is generally not considered amongst the top 20 most dangerous countries in the world but top 50 with many homicides being between gangs and not affecting the general populace and no large scale wars.
622:, however, the Map of Violence 2010 does not provide a breakdown in domestic vs non-domestic violence, to get to that number, CNN has assumed that all violence against women is domestic violence, which is false, it's estimated that between

and Bureau of
Consular Affairs are not explaining how they measured it. If Brazil has high level of homicide rate then we must add the homicide rate, not simply throw that Brazil has high rate of crime.

lastly, using Dilma's data on a domestic violence study is literally using feminist data to talk about domestic violence, of course it's going to be biased there's a conflict of interest there. And the
