This book examines the persistence of social violence and public insecurity in Honduras. Using a spatial perspective, the author looks at the Honduran state's security polices - known as Mano Dura - and the challenges authorities face. She points to the state's historical difficulty producing and ordering political territory and space. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction 1. State, Space and Territory 2. Territorializing the State 3.
