Abstract

This article analyses the community safety paradigm in the light of the current pandemic crisis caused by COVID-19. In full evolution, the analysis presented considers the current security and civil protection needs, in particular the security aspects of community security. Through the development of strategies involving security forces and services, the community and citizens, the authors demonstrate the practical importance of security municipalisation through local administrative police, evolving into an important regionalization of security. Similarly, community policing and proximity strategies are observed in accordance with public security policies that point to greater political awareness in security problematization.
