Organizações criminosas e corrupção administrativa: a expressão do crime organizado endógeno ( um estudo de caso no município de Itaporanga, estado da Paraíba).

Abstract

Organized crime makes up the new face of criminality, the criminal organizations presents themselves as real companies, adopting business methods aimed at maximizing the benefits and reducing the risk of their criminal practices, whose agents are professional criminals who work silently through several running frauds. Given this recent configuration, the understanding of this criminological organized phenomenon is made by the observation of the place occupied by the state in criminal relationships, which can serve as a facilitator for the implementation of the scams, or as birthplace of criminal organizations. On this track, starting from the analysis of the types of organized crime, this dissertation has the scope to demonstrate the configuration of a endogenous organized crime through the establishment of criminal organizations within the state administrative apparatus so as to broaden the vision of organized crime which is still predominantly restricted to the model of mafia criminal organization. It thus explores the manifestation of administrative corruption as a inseparable element of endogenous organized crime, constituting the concerted action of public and private actors. It s identified that the public bidding sector is a favorable environment for the endogenous activity of criminal organizations, because it enables the formation of a network that exchanges benefits and protection between public and private actors through corrupt practices. In order to prove empirically the manifestation of endogenous organized crime, is studied a case that occurred on the public bidding sector in the municipality of Itaporanga/PB, reproduced in several other municipalities in Paraíba, extracted from civil and criminal proceedings in the 14th Federal Court in Patos/PB. The results of the research point to the existence of an endogenous organized crime revealed in the concerted action of more than one public official, usually in unity of purpose with private agents, and in the presence of administrative corruption.
