Sensational headlines have publicized the drug trafficking, brutal violence, and other organized crime elements associated with Central America's mara gangs, but there have been few clear-eyed analyses of the history, hierarchies, and future of the mara phenomenon. The first book to look specifically at the Central American gang problem by drawing on the perspectives of researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds, Maras: Gang Violence and Security in Central America provides much-needed insight. These essays trace the development of the gangs, from Mara Salvatrucha to the 18th Street Gang, in Los Angeles and their spread to El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, and Nicaragua as the result of members' deportation to Central America; there, they account for high homicide rates and threaten the democratic stability of the region. With expertise in areas ranging from political science to law enforcement and human rights, the contributors also explore the spread of mara violence in the United States. Their findings comprise a complete documentation that spans sexualized violence, case studies of individual gangs, economic factors, varied responses to gang violence, the use of intelligence gathering, the limits of state power, and the role of policy makers. Raising crucial questions for a wide readership, these essays are sure to spark productive international dialogues.

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.

En los años 50 los sociólogos se preguntaban qué era lo que reemplazaba a las sociedades agrarias y qué caracteristicas asumiría el proceso de industrialización en sociedades como las latinoamericanas. Sesenta años después, luego de laberínticos caminos recorridos por las sociedades latinoamericanas, los sociólogos actuales se preguntan qué es lo que reemplaza a un ciclo de industrialización dependiente y trunca y qué nuevas consideraciones sociológicas del desarrollo y de la democracia emergen con la crisis global y la sociedad de la información y la comunicación a escala global. La cuestión de un nuevo tipo de desarrollo está nuevamente en el escenario de la política. Ciertamente responder estas indagaciones es muy dificil. En este libro Fernando Calderón plantea algunos temas y reflexiones a la luz de experiencias de investigación empírica que ha realizado en temas de desarrollo humano, democracia y movimientos socioculturales en los últimos 5 años. Analiza temas como la globalización política, la inflexión histórica y algunas situaciones diferenciadas de inflexión política en Centroamérica y en el Cono Sur. Asimismo son estudiados los casos de Bolivia, Ecuador y Perú, relevando la temática étnica y su relación con la política. Otros temas analizados son la cuestión de la crítica de la cultura política, la idea de un Estado de lo público y su relación con la ciudadanía y el desarrollo humano; y la reemergencia de nuevos movimientos socioculturales y de una nueva politicidad. [Description in English] Latin America and the Caribbean: Changing Times New Sociological Considerations on Democracy and Development In the 1950s sociologists asked themselves what replaced agrarian societies and what features the industrialization process would adopt in societies such as those of Latin America. Sixty years on, following the labyrinthine paths taken by Latin American societies, present-day sociologists ask themselves what replaces a cycle of dependent and incomplete industrialization and what new sociological considerations on development and democracy emerge from the global crisis, the information society and global-scale communication. The issue of a new type of development is once again on the political agenda. Answering such questions is clearly no easy matter. In this book Fernando Calderón presents a number of topics and reflections in the light of experiences of empirical research he has carried out on issues related to human development, democracy and socio-cultural movements over the last 5 years. He analyzes topics such as political globalization, historical turning points and particular political turning points in Central America and the Southern Cone. He also examines the cases of Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru and investigates ethnical issues and the way they relate to politics. Other topics analyzed are the question of criticism of political culture, the idea of a "public" State and its relation to the citizenry and human development, and the reemergence of new sociopolitical movements and a new politicity.

2011 Winner of the Charles H. Levine Memorial Book Prize of the International Political Science Association Latin America’s crime rates are astonishing by any standard—the region’s homicide rate is the world’s highest. This crisis continually traps governments between the need for comprehensive reform and the public demand for immediate action, usually meaning iron-fisted police tactics harking back to the repressive pre-1980s dictatorships. In Policing Democracy, Mark Ungar situates Latin America at a crossroads between its longstanding form of reactive policing and a problem-oriented approach based on prevention and citizen participation. Drawing on extensive case studies from Argentina, Bolivia, and Honduras, he reviews the full spectrum of areas needing reform: criminal law, policing, investigation, trial practices, and incarceration. Finally, Policing Democracy probes democratic politics, power relations, and regional disparities of security and reform to establish a framework for understanding the crisis and moving beyond it.

Privatization and the New Medical Pluralism is the first collection of its kind to explore the contemporary terrain of healthcare in Guatemala through reflective ethnography. This volume offers a nuanced portrait of the effects of healthcare privatization for indigenous Maya people, who have historically endured numerous disparities in health and healthcare access. The collection provides an updated understanding of medical pluralism, which concerns not only the tensions and exchanges between ethnomedicine and biomedicine that have historically shaped Maya people’s experiences of health, but also the multiple competing biomedical institutions that have emerged in a highly privatized, market-driven environment of care. The contributors examine the macro-structural and micro-level implications of the proliferation of non-governmental organizations, private fee-for-service clinics, and new pharmaceuticals against the backdrop of a deteriorating public health system. In this environment, health seekers encounter new challenges and opportunities, relationships between the public, private, and civil sectors transform, and new forms of inequality in access to healthcare abound. This volume connects these themes to critical studies of global and public health, exposing the strictures and apertures of healthcare privatization for marginalized populations in Guatemala.

Central America constitutes a fascinating case study of the challenges, opportunities and characteristics of the process of transformation in today’s global economy. Comprised of a politically diverse range of societies, this region has long been of interest to students of economic development and political change. The Handbook of Central American Governance aims to describe and explain the manifold processes that are taking place in Central America that are altering patterns of social, political and economic governance, with particular focus on the impact of globalization and democratization. Containing sections on topics such as state and democracy, key political and social actors, inequality and social policy and international relations, in addition to in-depth studies on five key countries (Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala), this text is composed of contributions from some of the leading scholars in the field. No other single volume studies the current characteristics of the region from a political, economic and social perspective or reviews recent research in such detail. As such, this handbook is of value to academics, students and researchers as well as to policy-makers and those with an interest in governance and political processes.
