Major food producers or food importers includes food security as one of the National security´s policies main stream. In this context, strategic food security policies are essential to the sovereignty, economic development and political stability. The aim of this work was to contribute to this debate, which includes food security as a relevant component of National security and defense policies. This paper discusses the role of food security on major security policies, comparing food security approach on countries with different political and economic systems. The paper highlights the strategy on food security policies involves the political model, the role-play by the country on the global food security and the food self-sufficient approach. As a major food producer and global food exporter, Brazil plays an important role on global food security. Meanwhile, a food security policy should be consider as essential part of a national security strategy, which would support the Brazil economic development and its global political influence.

Despite having regional interests and abundant natural resources to secure while great-power competition is developing in South America, the roles and objectives of the Brazilian Armed Forces are strongly related to missions other than external security. In this direction, what are the main challenges regarding the relationship between defence policy, defence budget, and force structure in Brazil? To address this research problem, we explore an analytical approach that connects defence policy to budget execution in the context of civil-military relations in Brazil. The methodological framework of the paper adopts a qualitative approach, choosing a single case study as its research design. To cope with the classical limitations of the single-country study we adopted a broader historical perspective to raise observations. Thus, the paper deals with two levels of analysis: international (geopolitical landscape) and domestic (Ministry of Defence). Based on official documents and budgetary data between 1999 and 2021, we trace the major consequences of the Brazilian Armed Forces' continuous involvement in internal security issues, such as public safety, border security, environmental crimes, and migration crises. The paper shows that the current profile of Brazil’s military spending, which is characterised by relatively high costs on personnel and low investments, has detrimental effects on defence acquisitions, training, operations, and readiness. Our main argument is that the share of personnel expenditure is a fundamental challenge for Brazilian defence policy in the coming years.

This work is an effort to comprehend the mediatic speech. The main theme considered here is public security. More specifically, our purpose is to analyse how different politics of public security are propagated by the media. Using the theory about the different types of policing (Bayley, 2006; Bayley and Skolnick, 2006), there is the tension between the models of confrontational policing and community policing in Brazilian contemporary situation. My hypothesis is that governmental intervention in poor territories was (and is) intimately linked to the «image» that these territories have in the society. Press analysis was undertaken in order to capture some key «pictures» in governmental speech. The analysis of the papers is divided into two blocks. Two cases are considered: The first is dedicated to understand the implementation of the UPP in Santa Marta, localizing the related news and the way how they were presented during the analyzed period. Furthermore, there is an analysis of the newspapers during the period when Complexo was the centre of several police actions analyzed, considering the number of reports, their location and contents.

This work examines the character, functioning and changes therein of the state security apparatus, the socialist "arcana imperii," in pre-1989 Bulgaria. Building on Foucault's notion of 'governance' and on his formulation of power as both productive and repressive, the paper aims to analyze the political strong arm of the regime as a knowledge management institution. The importance of surveillance for modern politics and the dynamics of secrecy are discussed as structured by technologies of exclusion, obstruction, and revelation. State security is contextualized through the perspective of the 20th century revolutionary objective to engineer the new socialist subject [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 reinserted the issue of immigration into the media, along to questions related to (in) security and (un)employment. The foreigner, the other, came to be characterized as a threat in a discursive system that blended fiction and reality: both in movies and in news, the immigrant has been presented as a problem to be solved, in speeches that are reinforced, constituting what can be termed as hegemonic discourse. In this paper, based on Gramsci and Robert Stam theoretical framework, we seek to identify aspects of a counter-hegemonic discourse into the film Welcome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the as a sphere of dialogue between Police and community and, consequently, a new organization of traditionally hierarchical structures through the insertion of the citizen into the management of public policies. The matter of popular participation in public policies emerged as a focus of analysis in Brazilian social sciences, especially after the resignation of city councils, seeking to approximate public policy managers and citizens. In the specific case of public security, the motivation for the engagement of citizens in public policies acquires a more incisive connotation due to the growth of violent crime levels in the country. The present article offers a case study of the Council of Public Security in Brumadinho, a city in the Metropolitan Area of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. This case presents relevant elements for the understading of the complex interaction between social and public actors as well as their implications for the construction of public policies. In this way, it is possible to simultaneously discuss the challenges of popular participation and the new arrangement of the public structures, traditionally responsible for managing public security policies.

The main argument of this paper is that the process of interaction between Ukraine and Russia generates a social identity of enmity, which is the source of the conflict of interests between the two countries. In order to defend the argument, a theoretical model is proposed based on the importance of ideas to the constitution of interests and on the belief that interests are determined by identities. The next task is to demonstrate why the identity between the two countries is one of enmity. The reaction of both countries towards NATO expansion is used to illustrate the consequences of enmity. Because identities determine interests, the relationship between friend States involves common interests and between foes divergent interests. So the perception of a threat is shared by friends while between enemies the friend of one becomes the enemy of the other. That is why Ukraine cooperates with NATO and Russia does not accept its expansion. In order to avoid that the conflicts between Ukraine and Russia become a threat to Europe's security, it's necessary to change the identity constructed in through their interaction.

The article analyses the emergence of organizations that originated Embraer Corp., i.e., the Ministry of Aeronautics, the Aeronautics Technological Center and the Aeronautics Technological Institute, founded in the 1940's and 1950's. This paper analyses the Embraer's involvement with the Aeronautics' national defense strategic project. This strategic project of the officials of the Brazilian Air Force was tied to the problematics of the national security and was connected with the spacious commitment of the soldiers in the political Brazilian process. In this sense, Embraer resembles the oil producing and iron and steel industries, which also disposed of active participation of the soldiers in the installation. The strategical project, from which later on the foundation of Embraer was derived, prioritized the formation of human resources of high level, capable of not only absorbing the technological knowledge that appeared in the form accelerated in the international scenery, but also of looking for solutions appropriate to the national context. This was at a time where Brazil was characterized for a predominantly agricultural economy and, therefore, highly dependant of the industrialized arrived products from abroad.
