Can Rio's Crime Problem Be Solved Before the Olympics?

Just two weeks ago, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said between
delirious sobs in Copenhagen that the International Olympic Committee's decision to
award the 2016 Olympic Games to Rio de Janeiro was a vindication of Brazil's social
and economic advances. 1
the elephant in the room was the precarious security
situation in the once great city, now fallen into decay, and that elephant made its
presence felt on Oct. 17. At least 14 people were killed and eight more were injured
after violent shoot-outs between rival drug gangs careened out of the favela slums
and into neighboring communities. In the most spectacular incident, three officers
were killed after gangsters shot down a police helicopter.
10
The day of violence — a school got hit in the cross fire and more than 10 buses
11 were torched — has underscored the challenge of creating a secure environment for
12 hundreds of thousands of foreign tourists in a state
2
close to 6,000 people are
13 killed each year, more than 1,000 of them by police. The homicide rate in Rio had been
14 falling in recent years, but it is on the rise again. And authorities, acutely aware that last
15 weekend's violence occurred in the Olympic spotlight, didn't sound exactly reassuring.

"We told the International Olympic Committee that this is not easy, and they know
that," Rio Governor Sergio Cabral said. "We don't want just to be ready for special
days — for that we can put 40,000 police on the streets. I told them we want to get to
2016 and have a peaceful Rio de Janeiro before, during and after the Games."
Recent attempts at community policing in at least two favelas, including one in
the heart of the touristy South Side, have given Cabral some grounds for optimism.
By stationing officers inside the community rather than just storming it at the first
signs of trouble, police have gained a measure of confidence and credibility among
residents.
But the program has been limited, and the task ahead remains enormous. Out
of Rio's more than 1,000 favelas, the so-called Pacifier Police Divisions have been
introduced in just four — authorities lack either the resources or the manpower to
implement them all across the city, and they have resisted root-and-branch reforms of
police forces

are unprofessional, corrupt, poorly paid and poorly armed in
comparison to the drug gangs they face.
The final IOC report made little mention of the security situation other than to
euphemistically note that the city "faces public security challenges." FIFA,
4
its
part, declared that Brazil's "authorities have the know-how and resources to improve
the situation before 2014, and would have the determination to manage it during the
2014 FIFA World Cup."
5 the Games and the World Cup were awarded, Rio officials played down
the security angle, and they were delighted at the willingness of the IOC and FIFA to
turn a blind eye to the problem. Now, though, they are the ones who are left to deal
with the problem. Last weekend was a reminder that, tough as it may be to meet the
tight schedule for building the stadiums and the public-transportation infrastructure
that is required to host these events, that may turn out to be the easy part.

“Naziazeno vai como que “a reboque”. Todo o seu corpo tem uma fadiga,

agora já visa uma coisa qualquer que o salve do vexame de chegar em casa com
as mãos abanando [...]” (p. 88).
Nessa passagem, grande parte da ação é descrita no presente do
indicativo, tempo que é também o predominante na narrativa do livro como um todo.
Explique qual a função desse recurso na organização do romance, articulando-o
com a atitude do narrador em relação à busca desesperada do protagonista.

“Esses adeuses que caíam pelos mares,
declamatórios, a pregar sua amargura,
emudeceram; já não há tempos nem ecos.
Perdeu-se a forma dos abraços. De ar é a lousa
dos cemitérios: um suspiro momentâneo.
De ar esses mortos – que eram de ar enquanto vivos.
De ar, este mundo, esta presença, este momento,
estes caminhos sem firmeza. Dos adeuses
que vamos sendo – ó ramos de ossos, flor de cinzas! –
é que morremos – e num lúcido segredo –
sabemos, ouvindo – atravessados de evidências –
que somos de ar, de adeuses de ar...E tão de adeuses
que já nem temos mais despedidas.”
Este último poema de Solombra começa com a evocação da dor da separação pela
morte para fixar-se, em seguida, no caráter transitório de toda vida humana. Duas
imagens distintas marcadas pelo mesmo traço simbólico repetem-se ao longo das
estrofes e são, afinal, reunidas numa só. Identifique essas imagens e seu caráter
simbólico, acrescentando um comentário sobre o desenvolvimento que recebem ao
longo do poema.
