Em um país de dimensões continentais, uma pesquisa revela que 68 milhões de brasileiros — quase um terço da população — vivem sob o domínio efetivo de facções criminosas ou milícias. O que está em jogo não é apenas a segurança pública, mas a própria ideia de Estado: onde as instituições legítimas deveriam governar, estruturas paralelas de poder preenchem o vácuo com violência e ordem própria. É um retrato de uma fratura profunda entre o Brasil formal e o Brasil real, onde para milhões de pessoas as regras da vida cotidiana são ditadas não por representantes eleitos, mas por quem detém as armas

Erosion of Brazilian state authority in urban peripheries; criminal organizations (PCC, CV, militias) consolidating territorial control and shadow governance; weakening of federal law enforcement capacity; potential shift toward parallel state structures in affected regions.
Similar to Colombia's 1990s narco-state fragmentation and Mexico's cartel territorial dominance (2000s-2010s), where criminal organizations filled governance vacuums and destabilized entire regions.

Consumers face higher prices due to informal taxation by criminal groups, reduced access to formal financial services, limited retail competition, higher insurance costs, deteriorating public services, and constrained economic mobility in affected regions.
Urgent need for enhanced law enforcement, judicial reform, and targeted social investment in criminal-controlled territories. May prompt international credit rating downgrades, stricter foreign investment conditions, and potential IMF/World Bank engagement on governance issues.
