This thesis aims to analyze the work of death squads, death squads, political repression at the national level during the period from 1973 to 1979. We seek evidence that the violence of the Bonapartist state has also used these groups to perpetuation of political repression in contrast to the prevailing view that these organizations were limited to the application of "social cleansing". Active during the period of bourgeois Bonapartist autocracy, the death squads were part of the repressive system and had "modus operandi" itself, applied to any social segment taxed by the state as subversive, meeting the wishes of the hegemonic segments in the bourgeoisie represented by the class-State. Because of this integration, agents of squads enjoyed political protection from those autocrats by applying the abuse of legality which secured them legal freedom. Impunity was also afforded them through the logic of manipulative legality, embedded in that state. The end of the economic miracle and political opening process marked the decline of the death squads in view of the withdrawal of support of autocrats, the hegemonic sectors of the bourgeoisie and the favorable public opinion to those practices. To develop this research, we used DOPS documents, present in the São Paulo State Archives; the personal collection of Dr. Hélio Bicudo, available at PUC-SP Library and the National Archives of Rio de Janeiro. These documents were submitted to the immanent analysis, aimed at the analysis of the object in the search for ways of being and their role in the historical process
