The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for governments to
generate the necessary capacity to address important security and
institutional challenges; this volume deepens our understanding of
the nature and extent of state governance in Latin America. State
capacity is multidimensional, with all elements interacting to
produce stable governance and security. As such, a collection of
scholars and practitioners use an explicit interdisciplinary
approach, drawing on the contributions of history, political
science, economics, public policy, military studies, and other
fields to gain a rounded understanding of the link between security
and democracy. Democracy and Security in Latin America is divided
in two sections: Part 1 focuses on the challenges to governance and
key institutions such as police, courts, armed forces. and the
prison system. Part 2 features country case studies that illustrate
particularly important security challenges and various means by
which the state has confronted them. Democracy and Security in
Latin America should appeal not only to those seeking to learn more
about the capacity of the democratic state in Latin America to
effectively provide public security in times of stress, but to all
those curious about the reality that a democracy must have security
to function.
