摘要：

In all Central American countries we witness a struggle to define, interpret and classify types of violence, delinquency, crime and insecurity. Although this struggle has highly relevant political and social implications, it has not been analyzed systematically. The authors show that moral panic and repressive criminal policies are not direct consequences of the violence phenomena per se. Rather, the perception of and the reactions to insecurity and violence are based on social discourses about these phenomena.
