It introduces a novel methodological framework for assessing police violence in contexts where legal accountability remains limited or absent. The core of the methodology is a set of twelve indicators designed to evaluate patterns of lethal force, with particular attention to identifying abuses and enabling cross-national comparisons to highlight both regional patterns and national outliers. Drawing on these indicators, this volume features in-depth country case studies--Brazil, Mexico, Venezuela, El Salvador, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Colombia, Peru, Chile, and Uruguay--each offering both national context and application of the framework.  By combining rigorous comparative analysis with grounded national insights, this book provides researchers, advocates, and journalists with a practical and replicable approach to documenting and confronting police violence. It contributes to broader efforts to advance accountability and reform in a region marked by high levels of state violence and the world's highest homicide rates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ignacio Cano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031991168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031991165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Ignacio Cano","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47965943431423,"sku":"9783031991165","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d21375ba-daf7-4e24-bf9f-bdd234ebe0b4.jpg?v=1767285885","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/monitor-of-lethal-force-in-ignacio-cano-9783031991165","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
