This work focuses on collecting data on crimes against property, more specifically thefts and robberies committed in the main neighbourhoods of the city of Arcoverde/PE. The general objective is to analyse the incidence of the above-mentioned types of crime in the city of Arcoverde, by producing monthly tables, based on the theories developed by Émile Durkheim and drawing on the experience of an internship at the 156th Civil Police Station, Arcoverde/PE District, and at the Citizenship Observatory.

The specific objectives are to conceptualise and discuss the definitions of crime against property, relate Durkheim's theories and questions about crime and social vulnerability to the incidence of theft and robbery and report on the experience, proposing the expansion of the Citizenship Observatory. The concepts of mechanical and organic solidarity, anomie, social fact and collective consciousness were used, as well as texts on violence, crime and social vulnerability.

Finally, there is a proposal for a public policy, based on the internship experience report. .
