| Summary: | The goal of this paper is to analyze the way in which people taking part in the Comunidades Vulnerables program work to prevent crime in a slum. In this way, this research reveals the action plan of this program in relation to the ties with community and the assumptions of this plan in relation to community cohesion and its relation with crime prevention. The results of this research demonstrate that public policies are based on the assumption that young people should improve their position within community relationships to stop being in “conflict with law”. This may imply the further development of existing links or the generation of new ties. This paper shows how these assumptions clash with certain practices of actors, especially when daily relationships demonstrate that community links can also be affected by conflicts. |
