A TERRITORIALIDADE DAS EMPRESAS DE SEGURANÇA PRIVADA EM ARAGUAÍNA -TO NO ANO DE 2022

Abstract

This paper aims to describe the territoriality of private security companies in Araguaína-TO. The studies analyzed are proposed based on books, articles, final course works, regulations on private security and activities in the area. We seek to describe how the trajectory of private security in Brazil developed through the increase in crime in the country between the 1960s and 2000, when there was an expansion of private security services acting as a complement to public security. To explain the territoriality of private security companies, we made a cut on the history of Tocantins from the 18th century to 2022. Where we seek to explain how private security companies operate in Araguaína. The focus was to analyze the construction of the territory taking into account the economic aspects of the city, considered by scholars to be a medium-sized city, where there are many service stations within the scope of private security. We can conclude that due to the economic influence of the region and its privileged geographical location, there are many workers working in this area, as there are companies, banks, supermarket chains, public institutions, hospitals, universities, colleges, among other places where there are service stations through specialized companies or organic security services.
