Episode 83: Santiago Tobón on the Governance Provided by Organised Criminal Groups
Santiago Tobón discusses how the governance (e.g. settling disputes among neighbours, enforcing contracts...) provided by organised criminal groups depends on state presence across the neighbourhoods of Medellin, Colombia. Previous literature hypothesised a negative relation (i.e. organised groups settle disputes when the state is absent), but Santiago hypothesises and shows support for a positive relation.
