Chapter 1 Public Order Violence in Latin America Understanding Contemporary Trends -- Chapter 2 The Evolution of State Violence in Latin America From Caudillos to Cold Warriors -- Chapter 3 The Architecture of State Violence in Latin America Incomplete Reform and the Proliferation of State Security Forces -- Chapter 4 Violent Policing in Brazil Brutality Inequality and Social Order -- Chapter 5 Violence at Mexican Borders Sovereignty Drugs and Migration -- Chapter 6 Violence for Profit in Peru Repression and Economic Growth -- Chapter 7 The Legal Foundations of State Violence and Avenues for Change.

This book explores why state violence has proliferated across Latin America despite the adoption of extensive political and legal reforms intended to deter such violence. The authors argue that legacy conditions (uneven state capacity, weak rule of law, and socioeconomic inequalities) are met with what they term "public order violence," which results in weakened democratic institutions and a cycle of violence that is difficult to escape. Combining in-depth case studies with new cross-national data, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the history, evolution, and contemporary architecture of state violence in the region. Individual chapters explain how public order violence permeates everyday policing, border security, and economic growth. The conclusion outlines the legal foundations of state violence and pathways toward a more peaceful future. This book is essential reading for scholars of Latin American politics, political violence, transitional justice, civil-military relations, democratization, international relations and security studies. Brett J. Kyle is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. His most recent book, with Andrew G. Reiter, is Military Courts, Civil-Military Relations, and the Legal Battle for Democracy: The Politics of Military Justice (Routledge, 2021). Tricia D. Olsen is Professor and the Stassen Chair of World Peace at the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs and Department of Political Science.
