Description

Explore the complex dynamics of mob-based violence in this academic study from Routledge. By examining two specific cases in Guatemala, this book provides a deep look at how lynching has become an increasingly global phenomenon. The text examines how various social forces come together to drive singular acts of violence. Readers will examine how migration, tourism, and gang activity influence social stability. The study also looks at the role of media, gossip, and rumors in fueling communal unrest. Gavin Weston offers a critical perspective on Guatemalan lynchings, treating them as a form of post-conflict violence while looking at other direct and indirect causes. This work is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the patterns of global vigilantism.
