Pacification

Il faut près de deux ans, entre mai 1794 et mars 1796, pour que la France tourne la page de l’insurrection vendéenne. Alors que se poursuit la « guerre sans miséricorde », les premiers pourparlers de paix sont initiés dès le printemps 1794.

In preparation for the upcoming FIFA World Cup in 2014 and the 2016 Olympic Games, Rio has decided to take back the hills with a unique experiment – a “pacification process.” The city has engaged in an ambitious security operation aimed at freeing its favelas from the control of gangs and drug traffickers with new neighbourhood police forces, the UPP or Police Pacification Units. However, security is not the only rationale behind the program. As with everything, economic interests and international exposure are driving Rio's dramatic makeover.
