Violence, authoritarianism, and democratic security policies
El CLACSO Working Group on Violence, Authoritarianism and Democratic Security Policies The Working Group seeks to deepen the discussion on the challenges facing Latin American and Caribbean democracies in relation to the phenomena of violence that permeate our region. The Group's overall objective is to contribute to strengthening lines of knowledge on violence, authoritarianism, and democratic security policies, through a dialogue of knowledge among academia, state institutions, and social groups that influence the multi-agency design of public policies and interventions in the field of citizen security, as well as the effective strengthening of democratic regimes in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Working Group's consolidation strategy envisions the planned incorporation of young researchers from priority countries with academic backgrounds, ties to the state, and involvement with social movements, fostering exchange and dialogue among the different generations of researchers who have comprised this group since the early 2000s. It is imperative that knowledge production be geared towards building citizen security policies based on strengthening the democratic rule of law.
