The article examines the role of peasants and workers in the repressive system of El Salvador during the period of 1880 until 1930. The participation of civilians in policing, coercive administration of justice, and manipulation of class relations and conflicts was not informal as could be expected. Rather civilians like peasant auxiliaries to erode community links into the country's state institutions allowing national authorities to erode community links and keep the countryside under control by preventing organized strategies of resistance.
