Indo até o problema: Roubo e circulação na cidade do Rio de Janeiro.

Addresses different practices of robbery in the streets of Rio de Janeiro, accounting for the spatiality, circulation and regulations of this activity conducted by the police and local drug traffic. Based on ethnographical researches, we describe the risks faced by robbers that circulate throughout the city to rob and the technical repertoires adopted in order to minimize them, establishing an analytical distinction according to the means of transportation used: the act of robbing by car/motorcycle and the act of robbing by bus. Therefore, we consider the territoriality of robberies in an urban context of violence and socio-spatial segregation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
