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. 606 $aLatin America?Politics and government 606 $aCrime?Sociological aspects 606 $aTerrorism 606 $aPolitical violence 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aComparative politics 606 $aLatin American Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911150 606 $aCrime and Society$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B3000 606 $aTerrorism and Political Violence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912090 606 $aPolitical History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080 606 $aComparative Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911040 607 $aCentral America$xPolitics and government 607 $aCentral America$2fast 615 0$aLatin America?Politics and government. 615 0$aCrime?Sociological aspects. 615 0$aTerrorism. 615 0$aPolitical violence. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aComparative politics. 615 14$aLatin American Politics. 615 24$aCrime and Society. 615 24$aTerrorism and Political Violence. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aComparative Politics. 676 $a320.4 700 $aHuhn$b Sebastian$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0853544 702 $aWarnecke-Berger$b Hannes$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156205703321 996 $aPolitics and History of Violence and Crime in Central America$91931919 997 $aUNINA
