abstract: Individuals with high levels of neighborhood attachment provide a multitude of positive factors to neighborhoods. Research has demonstrated that increases in informal social controls, maintaining a well-kept area, and positive social ties are improved with higher levels of neighborhood attachment. Identifying the factors that lead to higher levels of neighborhood attachment has thus become an area in the literature that scholars have frequently studied. One aspect of neighborhood life that has been neglected in research is the role of police on neighborhood attachment. This study addresses the gap by exploring the role of police in influencing levels of neighborhood attachment. Data from the Seattle Neighborhood and Crime Survey are used to examine perceptions of police effectiveness on overall levels of neighborhood attachment, and the three different sub-concepts of neighborhood attachment. Results demonstrated that perceptions of police effectiveness had a positive relationship on all forms of neighborhood attachment. Suggestions for the roles of police in developing neighborhood attachment will be discussed, as well as the theoretical applications for future testing of neighborhood attachment. This study demonstrates the influence of police on daily neighborhood life. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Criminology and Criminal Justice 2016

O presente trabalho é um estudo sobre a configuração do espaço penhense a partir, sobretudo, da consideração de práticas sociais que marcaram a história dessa porção da cidade de São Paulo. O entendimento desta problemática passa pela análise das continuidades e descontinuidades históricas e das relações de vizinhança, enquanto referência de vida de bairro, que deram à Penha certa originalidade em relação aos demais bairros de São Paulo. O período abrangido no estudo se estende desde a formação do patrimônio religioso e o estabelecimento da freguesia de Nossa Senhora da Penha, até a metropolização, momento de grande ruptura marcada pelo fim da vida de bairro na localidade. O estudo destaca três momentos: a constituição da Penha enquanto bairro rural; a constituição da Penha enquanto subúrbio; e a constituição da Penha enquanto bairro da cidade de São Paulo. A compreensão das transformações espaciais na Penha e de todo o conjunto acima descrito só é possível se realizam se tivermos em mente a cidade e seus processos (industrialização e urbanização) enquanto instauradores do modo de vida urbano. Com isso acreditamos também estar contribuindo para a compreensão do desenvolvimento urbano da cidade de São Paulo. / The present work is a study about the configuration of the penhense space from, over all, the consideration of social practices that marked the history of this portion of the São Paulo city. The agreement of this problematic pass through analysis of the historical continuities and discontinuities and the neighborhood relations, while reference of neighborhood life, that had given to Penha some originality in relation to others neighborhood of São Paulo. The period enclosed on the study extends since the formation of the religious patrimony, establishment of the Nossa Senhora da Penha parish, until the metropolization, moment of large rupture marked for the end of the neighborhood life in the locality. The study point out three moments: the constitution of Penha while rural neighborhood; the constitution of Penha while suburb; and the constitution of Penha while neighborhood of the São Paulo city. The comprehension of the space transformations on the neighborhood of Penha and all set described above have only accomplished if we have in mind the city and its processes (industrialization and urbanization) while founders of the urban way of living. With this we also believe to be contributing for the understanding of the urban development of the city of São Paulo.
