ABSTRACT Here I dissect the institutionalisation of ‘citizen security’ as a category and sector of public policy in post-authoritarian Chile. Deploying a Bourdieusian field theory approach and questioning narratives of security policies as responses to criminality or adaptations to democratic values, I argue that the construction of a new security policy sector – with a new consensus (distinct from that of National Security), with reformed police and courts in its core, leaving aside the military and extending beyond traditional agencies – derives from (i) struggles over policing and criminal justice reforms, (ii) tensions between the military and democratic authorities in democracy and (iii) performative integrations of the new policy components. These mechanisms explain the evolution of the security problem and the progressive aggregation of bureaucratic agencies and methods to the ‘public security policy’ – policing, judiciary, urban design, prisons and prevention plans. I close discussing alternative accounts of institutional variations in security governance in the region.

精心策划的公共安全：威权主义之后的智利非军事化，刑法改革和安全政策制定

摘要在这里，我剖析了“公民安全”制度化在后威权主义智利的公共政策范畴和领域。我采用布迪厄斯主义的现场理论方法并质疑安全政策的叙述，以应对犯罪或适应民主价值观，我认为，新的安全政策部门的建设应与新的共识（与国家安全不同）以及法院的核心，不包括军事力量，而又超越了传统机构，其源于（i）维持治安和刑事司法改革的斗争，（ii）军事和民主当局之间在民主方面的紧张关系，以及（iii）新政的执行性整合政策组成部分。这些机制解释了安全问题的演变以及官僚机构和方法向“公共安全政策”（警务，司法，城市设计，监狱和预防计划）的逐步聚集。我将结束讨论该地区安全治理中机构差异的其他描述。
