Description

Product Description This book highlights historical explanations to and roots of present phenomena of violence, insecurity, and law enforcement in Central America. Violence and crime are among the most discussed topics in Central America today, and sensationalism and fear of crime is as present as the increase of private security, the re-militarization of law enforcement, political populism, and mano dura policies. The contributors to this volume discuss historical forms, paths, continuities, and changes of violence and its public and political discussion in the region. This book thus offers in-depth analysis of different patterns of violence, their reproduction over time, their articulation in the present, and finally their discursive mobilization. Review “On the whole, the volume offers insights and interpretations from which scholars who study violence and Central America will benefit.” (David Carey, Jr., Criminal Law and Criminal Justice, clcjbooks.rutgers.edu, October, 2017) From the Back Cover This book highlights historical explanations to and roots of present phenomena of violence, insecurity, and law enforcement in Central America.
