The Politics of Police Violence in Democratic Brazil
More than a decade after Latin America's most recent turn to democracy,
unchecked police violence and torture continue and in some cases have
increased. This study examines police killings in 19 Brazilian states from
1994 to 2001 and finds that democracy has not substantially reduced these
types of human rights violations, for two reasons. First, underlying social
conflict has continued |

发帖数: 2069 | 6 美国新泽西州最近真的被惹“毛”了。相继接获两名女子的投诉受伤后，该州的“美
容美发管理委员会”目前正准备查禁专门在私处使用的“巴西比基尼式(热蜡)除毛法”
(Brazilian bikini waxes)。
据东森新闻报道，许多爱美者为了能够穿上大V字开叉的比基尼泳装，会把“到处
逃窜”的体毛清理干净。上述的除毛法于是大为风行。
然而，日前却有两名女子投诉，她们因为使用了“巴西比基尼式除毛”后，导致皮
肤感染住院。其中一人甚至告上法院。
基本上来说，“私处除毛”从来就不是合法的。只有脸部、脖子、腹部和四肢的除
毛才是合法的商业行为。但以往因为并未明令查禁“巴西比基尼式除毛法”，所以也一
直不曾执行过这条禁令。
“巴西比基尼式(热蜡)除毛法”在新泽西州盛行。
据皮肤专家说，私处除毛是有危险性的。因为热蜡可能灼伤细嫩的皮肤，造成感染
、引起红疹。
“美容美发管理委员会”预定下月14日开会决定，是否查禁“巴西比基尼式除毛法
”。一旦通过，最快5月即可执行。
