Abstract

Although the study of terrorism in general is rife with definitional disagreements and overlap of different types of violence, the study of terrorism in Latin America is especially challenged by these issues. There are few sources of cross-nationally comparable violence data and it is difficult to differentiate terrorism from other types of violence. Violent actors are frequently categorized in multiple categories, ranging from gangs to guerrilla. A subnational analysis is recommended to take into account divergent levels of development, violence, and state presence within countries. This approach is necessary to understand violent groups in Latin America that not only differ by front or faction, but also to examine groups that either straddle multiple categories of violence or fall in the gaps between them.

拉丁美洲的恐怖主义
尽管对恐怖主义的研究普遍充斥着定义上的分歧和不同类型暴力的重叠,但对拉丁美洲恐怖主义的研究尤其受到这些问题的挑战。跨国可比较的暴力数据来源很少,而且很难将恐怖主义与其他类型的暴力区分开来。暴力行为者通常被分为多个类别,从帮派到游击队。建议进行次国家分析,考虑到各国不同的发展水平、暴力和政府存在。这种方法对于了解拉丁美洲的暴力团体是必要的,这些团体不仅因阵线或派系而有所不同,而且还需要审查跨越多种暴力类别或处于两者之间差距的团体。
