This volume takes us inside the Mexican state to explain the failure there, but also reaches out to assess the impact of Mexico's security failure beyond its borders. The key innovative idea of the book-security failure-brings these perspectives together on an intermestic level of analysis. It is a view that runs counter to the standard emphasis on the external, trans-national nature of criminal threats to a largely inert state.Mexico's Security Failure is both timely,CrimeMexicoViolent crimesMexicoInternal securityMexicoCriminal justice, Administration ofMexicoCrimeViolent crimesInternal securityCriminal justice, Administration of364.972Kenny Paul1959-1607397Serrano Monica1607398Sotomayor Arturo1549761MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811890703321Mexico's security failure3933653UNINA
