Competition in Order and Progress: Criminal Insurgencies and Governance in Brazil - Paperback

by Robert J. Bunker (Editor), John P. Sullivan (Editor)

Competition in Order and Progress examines the competition in statemaking between criminal enterprises (gangs, militias, and criminal armed groups) and the state. The title builds from Brazil's motto Ordem e Progresso to capture the dynamics of state transition in Brazil's favelas, prisons, and beyond.
