Policing, Human Rights and Social Protest in Latin America

Although the triggers were different in each country, the response was similar: Severe crackdowns by besieged riot police with lethal results for protestors, bystanders and security forces alike. The heavy-handed and often counter-productive response by security forces raises the question of how police can contain demonstrations without brutal repression. Police have a critical role in maintaining law and order in any society. How and when security forces should use force against demonstrators is a contentious issue globally — and particularly in Latin America, where the security sector is plagued by unresolved authoritarian legacies, public distrust and insufficient resources or training. On June 1, USIP hosted a conversation with experts who have been at the forefront of regional efforts to reform Latin American security forces. This discussion analyzed legal frameworks for police use of force, discussed best practices and proposed practical polices to reduce violence and ensure accountability.

In conflict zones abroad, the Institute works with local partners to prevent, mitigate, and resolve violent conflict. To reduce future crises and the need for costly interventions, USIP works with governments and civil societies to build local capacities to manage conflict peacefully. The Institute pursues its mission by linking research, policy, training, analysis and direct action to support those who are working to build a more peaceful, inclusive world.
