A Massacre in Mexico
On September 26, 2014, 43 male students from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers' College went missing in Iguala, Guerrero, Mexico. On route to a protest, local police intercepted the students and a confrontation ensued. By the morning, they had disappeared without a trace.

Trata-se de um conceito que se destaca por sua indefinição e que outrora esteve vinculado aos problemas de segurança dos Estados Nacionais e ao universo processual penal. Porém, no período estudado (1980 ? 2005), a ordem pública adquire outros significados e para entendê-la são analisadas as políticas de segurança das capitais de Brasil e México. Procura-se identificar as noções de ordem contidas nos documentos e discursos de seus governos, articulando esta análise ao processo de transnacionalização do controle social punitivo.
