description This paper analyzes some of the main characteristics of the State's repressive forces during “Lula” da Silva´s administration (2003-2010) and, at the same time, examines the murders of activists by government and parastatal forces, paying special attention to cases registered in rural areas. This work was made with a quantitative methodology from different sources. On the one hand, we analyzed data published by different public bodies, such as the Ministry of Planning, Budget and Management, the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Finance. On the other hand, we also used secondary sources, such as newspaper articles and information published by civil society organizations, as the Brazilian Public Safety Forum, the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT) and the Geography Institute of the Federal University of Uberlândia. The development of the repressive apparatus and the evolution of activists executed during the years under study, demonstrates that the systematic use of violence and political repression are compatible with the maintenance of the democratic regime.

Para ello, se emplea una metodología cuantitativa a partir del uso de diferentes fuentes. Por un lado, se apela a los datos que publican distintos organismos estatales como el Ministerio de Planeamiento, Presupuesto y Gestión, el Ministerio de Justicia y el Ministerio de Hacienda. Por otro lado, se emplean fuentes secundarias, como artículos periodísticos e información publicada por organizaciones de la sociedad civil, como el Foro Brasileño de Seguridad Pública, la Comisión Pastoral de la Tierra (CPT) y el Instituto de Geografía de la Universidad Federal de Uberlândia. De este modo, se caracteriza el fortalecimiento del aparato represivo y la evolución de activistas ejecutados durante los años bajo estudio, demostrando que el empleo sistemático de la violencia y la represión política son compatibles con el sostenimiento del régimen democrático.  Instituto de Altos Estudios Nacionales IAEN 2021-01-11 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos evaluados por doble pares ciegos application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/212 10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n12.2021.212 Estado & comunes; Vol. 1 No. 12 (2021): Democracy and political culture in Latin America; 73-94 Estado & comunes; Vol. 1 Núm. 12 (2021): Democracia y cultura política en América Latina ; 73-94 2477-9245 1390-8081 10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n12.2021 spa https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/212/376 https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/212/392 https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/212/385 Derechos de autor 2021 Martín Pezzarini
