Inovação e colaboração na inteligência de segurança pública: uma análise do sistema estadual de Minas Gerais

Abstract

Introduction: public Security Intelligence is the permanent and systematic exercise of producing and safeguarding knowledge with the aim of advising decision makers in the field of public security. The intelligence agencies of the State Public Security Intelligence System of Minas Gerais (SEISP-MG) advise the government decision-making process with knowledge of public security interests. Objective: this study was to evaluate how knowledge is shared between SEISP-MG intelligence agencies. Metholdogy: literature reviews and interviews were carried out with the heads of the effective intelligence agencies of SEISP-MG. To analyze the interviews, the IRaMuTeQ software was used. Results:it was found that there are public intelligence policies that encourage the sharing of inter-organizational intelligence, and that the SECI Model by Nonaka and Takeuchi (1997) proved to be adequate to represent how this knowledge sharing occurs. Furthermore, it was found that the Tonet and Paz model (2006) allows understanding the sharing of interorganizational knowledge in SEISP-MG, with a view to strengthening the actions developed within the scope of SEISP-MG. Conclusion: The research suggests possible solutions focused on improving the interorganizationalknowledge sharing process and the importance of knowledge management in public security intelligence in Minas Gerais. Among other contributions and benefits, the research contributes to the promotion of academic discussions, in the area of Information Science, and in intelligence organizations, through managers, regarding the importance of sharing inter-organizational knowledge.
