Inhalt:
Mexico is currently undergoing a crisis of violence and insecurity that poses serious threats to democratic transition and rule of law. This book puts these developments in the context of post-revolutionary state-making in Mexico and shows that violence in the country is not the result of state failure, but of state-making. While most accounts of politics and the state in recent decades have emphasized processes of transition, institutional conflict resolution, and neo-liberal reform, this book lays out the increasingly important role of violence and coercion by a range of state and non-state armed actors.
