| Authors: | Schatz, Sara |

| Description: | This book analyzes the assassination of law-enforcement, more specifically, the targeted killings of police chiefs and top commanders in the Mexican drug war (2006–2012). It does so in the context of international and national institutional “gaps” in the rule of law that contribute to these murders.1 At the municipal level, documentation of the rise of the assassination of Mexican mayors has demonstrated its negative impact on the local rule of law (Ríos 2011b).2 The literature also acknowledges that Mexican law enforcement has been increasingly the target of violence in urban cities (Sabet 2012:57; Murataya et al. 2011:89; García 2011; Olson et al. 2010:15; Sullivan and Elkus 2008:7). |
