Resumo: Through the analysis of letters written by policemen, we intend to shed light on little known aspects of the São Paulo Police in the beginning of the XX century. This very personal mode of communication allows us to catch a glimpse of the intimacy of policemen’s lives, the presence of family, the porosity between both civil and institutional “worlds”. The epistolary form, so uncommon in a bureaucratic structure, uncovers the strategies of these workers in their daily relationship with the institution – the struggle for survival in a universe of poverty and hierarchical inequities; in short, a behind-the-scenes look into police work and routine.

Nas linhas desse instrumento tão pessoal, como são as cartas, vislumbram-se fragmentos da intimidade dos policiais, a presença da família, a porosidade entre os “mundos” civil e institucional. Desvelam-se na correspondência epistolar, pouco frequente numa estrutura burocrática, as estratégias desses trabalhadores na sua relação cotidiana com a instituição – o manejo pela sobrevivência num universo de pobreza e de iniquidades hierárquicas; enfim, as coxias do trabalho e da rotina policial.Editora FGV2016-11-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/63823Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 29 No. 59 (2016): Worlds of Labor; 627-646Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 29 n. 59 (2016): Mundos do Trabalho; 627-6462178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/63823/62627Copyright (c) 2016 Revista Estudos Históricosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRosemberg, Andre2017-09-06T14:30:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/63823Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:02:02.618934Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
