Abstract

The work refers to the process and decision of the Complexo do Alemão by military forces in the city of Rio de Janeiro, for the implementation of the Pacifying Police Units (UPP), which took place in November 2010. It aims to raise hypotheses about the relationship than is meant by justice from the occupation of the favela by the military, and how to live with the UPP has influenced the idea of Justice in German residents. The research is concer-ned to elucidate the reader on the most common justice approaches, conceptualizing and ex-plaining what the principles of justice, in which each hold. The research describes two theori-es that explain the emergence of slums in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The Complexo do Ale-mão is considered one of the largest slums of Rio de Janeiro, and the most violent, so making the area was through the attack of the military who used tactics of war and siege, they had Caveirão as support, and so gave beginning the invasion. The Globo Television Network also appears in the search because the station won the Emmy Award for journalism, with the inva-sion of coverage in German. Whereas one of the basic conditions of a democratic society is the right to participate in political decisions, social and economic, the issues investigated we-re: A mega-operation "pacification" in German was fair? From the point of view of who? What is the parameter to a just society? What representation of justice has been part of the routine of residents of German? Why still have the idea that "good bandit is killed bandit?" The research contributions are given in the social, philosophical and political and invites us to reflect on what is considered fair in a society like ours, where social inequalities are so strong.
