    Open Access•Wim Savenije, Pauline Martins et al.•ARTICLE•ECA Estudios Centroamericanos•2026

    In an education crisis, such as the one affecting El Salvador, public schools struggle to provide a safe environment and quality learning in the face of limited state resources and the challenges posed by pre-designed programs implemented by non-governmental organizations. This article presents the Context-Actions-Relationships (CAR) framework, which proposes empowering public schools facing educational emergencies by emphasizing the local contex…

  • Asalto a las relaciones pedagógicas. Educar en contextos de pandillas

    Open Access•Pauline Martins, Wim Savenije•ARTICLE•ECA Estudios Centroamericanos•2021•References: 1

    Las escuelas públicas salvadoreñas experimentan niveles preocupantes de inseguridad al interior y exterior de la institución, en relación con la presencia de pandillas (MINED, 2018a).

    Open Access•Chris Van Der Borgh, Wim Savenije•ARTICLE•Journal of Latin American Studies•2019•Cited by: 10•References: 21

Using field theory and securitisation theory, it maps the evolution of the truce, distinguishing between the three related processes of making the deal, keeping the truce, and resisting it. It analyses the complex and intriguing political processes in which various actors, such as gang leaders, government officials and internatio…

  • De-securitising and Re-securitising Gang Policies

    Open Access•Chris Van Der Borgh, Wim Savenije•ARTICLE•Journal of Latin American Studies•2015•Cited by: 12•References: 11

    This article analyses the gang policies of the first years of the Funes administration in El Salvador, from June 2009 until July 2012. Using securitisation theory, it explains why the administration returned to an emphasis on extraordinary measures, most of them repressive, to deal with gangs. It argues that these measures were the product of an ongoing and dynamic process in which the government was but one of the players in a complex field cons…
