The authors investigate the challenge organized crime poses to the state, its institutions, and governability in general. This publication is part of a series on the sub-regional dynamics of organized crime, focusing especially on the linkages between Central America, Mexico, and the Andean region as well as the growing insertion of Latin America in global transnational crime networks. 650 0 $a Organized crime $z Central America. 650 0 $a Organized crime $z El Salvador. 650 0 $a Organized crime $z Honduras. 650 0 $a Organized crime $z Guatemala. 650 0 $a Drug traffic $z Central America. 650 0 $a Violence $z Central America. 650 7 $a Drug traffic. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00898722 650 7 $a Organized crime. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01047884 650 7 $a Violence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01167224 651 7 $a Central America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244535 651 7 $a El Salvador. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205530 651 7 $a Guatemala. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205154 651 7 $a Honduras. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206188 700 1 $a Arnson, Cynthia. 700 1 $a Olson, Eric L. 710 2 $a Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. $b Latin American Program. 830 0 $a Woodrow Wilson Center reports on the Americas; $v no. 29. 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20191018012831.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B1CA1F84F16C11E99671E53E97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
