Hi everyone! I'm translating an academic paper entitled "Direitos Humanos, Forças Repressivas e Estratégias de Controle Social" and am struggling with the prepositions in this phrase. Thanks for your help!
Com estas duas posições colocadas, sustentamos nossos argumentos acerca das permanências históricas de longa duração ***da cultura jurídica e policial mais antiga referia à escravidão*** na sociedade pós-colonial brasileira que afetam os sentimentos políticos presentes nas políticas de segurança pública no Brasil no tempo presente. Com base nos tantos esforços do campo democrático em relação à luta pelos direitos humanos, no contexto da discussão e aprovação da Constituição de 1988, não conseguimos mudar uma vírgula no pensamento e ação das forças de segurança pública no país.

Selected
of an older/outdated judicial and policing culture that dates back to slavery
This is my understanding. The policing culture is out of date with the modern world.

Anthony OSullivan
: The entire sentence in Portuguese (starting with 'Com estas...) is poorly constructed but I would agree with your interpretation.

I believe the text means something like: "Com estas duas posições apresentadas, sustentamos os nossos argumentos acerca das permanências históricas duradouras da cultura jurídica e policial mais antiga, associada à escravidão na sociedade pós-colonial brasileira, que continuam a afetar os sentimentos políticos vigentes/prevalecentes nas políticas de segurança pública no Brasil no tempo presente."
Thus, among other possibilities, the translation may be something like: "With these two positions presented, we maintain our arguments about the lasting historical permanencies of the oldest legal and policing culture, associated with slavery in the Brazilian post-colonial society, which continue to affect the prevailing political feelings/thoughts in the public security policies in Brazil at the present time."
