Starts with the conceptualization and characterization of gangs, presenting them as one of the central figures in the new type of violent conflict that erupts in the urban centers around the world and relate their institutionalization in neighbourhood with the idea of ‘Retreat of the State’ in poorest urban zones, as well as presenting the position of some families in relation to their activities. aGANG DE RUA aVIOLÊNCIA JUVENIL aVIOLÊNCIA URBANA aBRASIL aCABO VERDE aLIMAbRedy Wilson
