Despite the pervasiveness of electoral democracy in Latin America,
the police continue to repress political protests. Why? Does the
majority of the public support the repression of protests? If not,
whom do they hold accountable, and how? Michelle Bonner offers a
new perspective on police reform and democratic accountability by
analysing how people talk about the policing of protests in
Argentina and Chile. Tracing the history of policing protests in
the two countries and exploring current discourses, practices, and
media coverage, she finds that talk most definitely does matter.
