Resumen

APARICIO BARRERA, Juan. Police studies in Latin America. Some theoretical and methodological limitations in their approach a direct target. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2016, vol.58, n.3, pp.119-132. ISSN 1794-3108.

This article answers the question "why so few studies on police forces are available in Latin America?" This historical deficit is due to the fact that the Latin American Academy has linked this kind of works to the theory of class status, administrative law, the Military Forces' studies and, most recently, neoinstitutionalism, this added to the police institutions' own lack of interest in carrying out social researches. The main objective was to analyze the state of the art in police studies in Latin America. The conclusion has been that Police has not been examined as an autonomous object. Only in the 20th century, starting in the decade of the nineties, there has been a purpose and a renewed interest in learning and delving into police forces
