El Salvador's President Bukele is widely celebrated for his crackdown on gangs, seen in media images of bound MS-13 inmates in a new mega-prison. But in this latest @Urban_Violence piece, @vivigarciap & José Salguero show why we should be very concerned. urbanviolence.org/myths-and-hard…

Happy to share our analysis of security policy in #ElSalvador and its linkages to the process of autocratization. We question some of the myths and deceitful narratives surrounding Bukele's model. Thanks to the @Urban_Violence's blog for the space! @amassuru @RedPolitologas

As anyone following me may have figured I'm now in treatment for a serious health problem. This has meant standing back from work at LSE. My colleagues are kindly organising a celebration for me on March 2nd: lse.ac.uk/social-policy/…. Do share. Do keep in touch (email is good)
