This article presents qualitative research on Operação Verão, a police operation in the beach of Rio de Janeiro against collective thefts attributed to suburban youth: the arrastão. It analyses perceptions of beach goers and law enforcement agents and shows how citizens’ fears morphed into perpetual panic that demands ever stronger security measures. Operação Verão exerts a selective control over suburban youth, reinforcing their stigmatization.
Keywords: policing; fear; panic; surveillance; stigmatisation.
