Fractured cities : social exclusion, urban violence and contested spaces in Latin America / Kees Koonings & Dirk Kruijt, editors.

• Introduction: the duality of latin American cityscapes -- Fractured cities, second-class citizenship and urban violence -- Rio de Janeiro -- Mexico City -- Medellin -- Managua -- Caracas -- Lima Metropolitana -- Living in fear: how the urban poor perceive violence, fear and insecurty -- Epilogue: Latin America's urban duality revisited.

• As cities sprawl across Latin America, absorbing more and more of its people, crime and violence have become inescapable. Based on empirical evidence, interviews with local people and historical contextualization, the authors attempt to shed light on the fault-lines which have appeared in Latin American society.
