Homicide in São Paulo An Examination of Trends from 1960-2010

“Homicide in São Paulo: An Examination of Trends from 1960- 2010 is an excellent supplement to the existing academic resources on the 60-year examination of the rise and fall of the homicide rate in São Paulo. Manso’s work contributes to the existing studies by using interviews of killers to explore the changing social nature of homicide. The book is most likely to appeal to political scientists, criminologists, sociologists and academics in Latin American studies.” (Kimberly M.
