Fear Itself: The Causes and Consequences of Fear in America

whether this contribution reflects an ambivalent state per se. As Auyero and Sobering point out, the national government has aimed to root out local forms of collusion, but it has been beset by juridical and jurisdictional complications, while the provincial and local police forces offer low wages and morale. Their ranks typically come from the same struggling working classes described throughout the book. Just this summer, Buenos Aires’ provincial police enacted a labor stoppage, purportedly to protest low wages and suboptimal working conditions. In short, the scholarly urge to cast off stark dichotomies such as strong versus weak states as hopelessly reified categories may deserve further scrutiny here. Why are some states more ambivalent than others? What are the degrees of ambivalence that appear in comparative juxtaposition? These are just a few questions that this important monograph will surely generate.
