Progressives, seizing on public outrage over entrenched inequities exacerbated by the pandemic, swept to power in many of the region\u2019s biggest economies, including Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=15744\">A look at presidential libraries as the Obama Presidential Center opens to the public this week<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A political backlash is brewing, though. Although homicide rates have broadly declined across Latin America compared to a decade ago, spikes in some countries and a regionwide rise in other crimes, particularly extortion, have created the conditions for conservative populists to score votes by promising strong-arm tactics against crime and immigration.<\/p>\n<p>Stump speeches casting migrants as criminals and pitching heavy-handed security strategies popularized by El Salvador\u2019s president, Nayib Bukele, have won conservative candidates President Donald Trump\u2019s backing and fired up their disaffected electorates despite concerns that such tactics could encourage human rights abuses or threaten democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have an emergent right wing that is very much in collaboration across the region and with the U.S. through the MAGA movement, which has also used crime as a rallying cry for political mobilization,\u201d said Enrique Roig, vice president of the nonprofit Human Rights First and a former State Department official. \u201cIt\u2019s easier to sell locking people up than it is to deal with the reasons why mainly young men join gangs in countries like El Salvador.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span><iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" class=\"youtube-player\" height=\"360\" loading=\"lazy\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lMJeudP_7jA?version=3&amp;rel=1&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;fs=1&amp;hl=en-US&amp;autohide=2&amp;wmode=transparent\" style=\"border:0;\" width=\"640\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Tough-on-crime platforms swing votes<\/h4>\n<p>Although populist politics across the political spectrum have done well, only the right has offered short-term security solutions that will make voters \u201cfeel safer in six months\u201d even if they have to \u201csacrifice democracy and human rights,\u201d said Adam Isacson, director for defense oversight at the Washington Office on Latin America organization.<\/p>\n<p>Proposals offered by the left, such as community violence prevention programs, better police training, and judicial and prison reforms, take more time to bear fruit, he said.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s absolutely what you\u2019re supposed to be doing, but people\u2019s patience runs out,\u201d Isacson said of long-term proposals. \u201cSo, there come the Bukeles of the world saying, \u2018You want to feel better? We got this.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Colombia, where swaths of the countryside have fallen into renewed conflict, pro-Trump businessman Abelardo de la Espriella has topped polls ahead of Sunday\u2019s runoff election as he takes his cues from Bukele.<\/p>\n<p>In Peru, where extortion has increased fivefold in the past five years, Keiko Fujimori rocketed to a June 7 presidential runoff on a law-and-order platform, vowing to deploy the military in prisons and along borders as she leans on the authoritarian legacy of her disgraced late father, former President Alberto Fujimori.<\/p>\n<p>Costa Ricans, rattled by record levels of drug-related killings, elected conservative populist Laura Fern\u00e1ndez in February for her tough-on-crime platform. Honduran businessman Nasry Asfura swept December\u2019s election after Trump endorsed him as a partner in the fight against \u201cnarco-communists.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Organized crime expands, fueling more violence<\/h4>\n<p>Latin America and the Caribbean last year saw their combined average homicide rate drop by more than 5% compared to 2024, with the median rate reaching about 17.6 per 100,000 people, according to InSight Crime, a think tank focused on organized crime in the Americas.<\/p>\n<p>But there are a few key exceptions. Drug-fueled killings have increased in Peru and Colombia, the world\u2019s top cocaine producers, as well as in neighboring Ecuador, whose major ports traffickers see as a gateway to European markets.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, authorities tallied 2,400 homicides in Peru and 14,780 in Colombia, which were the most in each country since at least 2020. Killings rose a remarkable 31% in Ecuador year-on-year, to 9,216.<\/p>\n<p>Gangs are blamed for much of the violence that began soaring in Ecuador during the COVID-19 pandemic, as cartels from Mexico, Colombia and the Balkans expanded their operations and hired locals, who set off a deadly fight over drug-trafficking routes. Their territorial disputes include prisons, where hundreds of inmates have been killed since 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Ecuadorian authorities also recorded more than 16,100 cases of extortion last year, which was down from 23,000 in 2024, though experts say it\u2019s an underreported crime.<\/p>\n<h4>Populists seize an opportunity<\/h4>\n<p>Four years ago, Chilean voters rejected ultra-conservative lawmaker Jos\u00e9 Antonio Kast in favor of ex-President Gabriel Boric, a young, tattooed former student protest leader seeking to address Chile\u2019s endemic social inequities. Last year, though, fears over rising crime \u2014 and its frequent association in media with the country\u2019s growing population of Venezuelan immigrants \u2014 played into Kast\u2019s hands, returning him to power.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=15739\">NATO chief downplays US military cutbacks as top commander makes backup plans<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As Venezuelan crime syndicates like the Tren de Aragua gang seized on their country\u2019s mass migration wave to infiltrate human trafficking networks following the pandemic, Chile, long one of Latin America\u2019s safest countries, witnessed an unprecedented explosion of carjackings, kidnappings and shoot-outs.<\/p>\n<p>Chile\u2019s homicide rate rose by 30%, to a peak of 6.7 per 100,000 people from 2021 to 2022, according to the Interior Ministry. It has since dropped but has stayed above pre-2021 levels. Other types of violent crime are still rising, including kidnappings, which have increased by nearly 180% over the past four years.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing inspiration from Bukele, whose mega-prisons in El Salvador he toured while campaigning, Kast handily beat his Communist opponent in December with pledges to build a massive border wall, toughen prison conditions for gang members and deport hundreds of thousands of migrants without legal status. For his promises of safety, voters shrugged off Kast\u2019s opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage rights and his defense of Augusto Pinochet\u2019s bloody dictatorship.<\/p>\n<p>In Peru, despite the contentious legacy of the convicted Alberto Fujimori, his daughter\u2019s candidacy has taken advantage of a surge in violent crime four years after she lost the election to schoolteacher Pedro Castillo.<\/p>\n<p>Campaigning under the slogan \u201cPeru with Order,\u201d Keiko Fujimori won the largest vote share in April\u2019s first round of voting. Results of the June 7 runoff still show her in a technical tie with the political heir of the imprisoned Castillo, nationalist Roberto S\u00e1nchez.<\/p>\n<p>Experts say the public\u2019s appetite for tough tactics \u2014 historically associated with the region\u2019s right-wing 20th-century dictatorships \u2014 has grown alongside its shrinking confidence in state institutions and its deepening ambivalence about democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thinking is often, \u2018democracy hasn\u2019t been able to keep me and my family safe, so maybe democracy is part of the problem,\u2019\u201d said Eduardo Moncada, director of the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University.<\/p>\n<p>That poses a major challenge to the Latin American left, which in many countries has presided over sluggish economies, grappled with corruption scandals and failed to fulfill promises of social reform in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Even progressives such as Jeannette Jara in Chile and S\u00e1nchez in Peru have shifted with the political tide. Uruguay\u2019s president, Yamand\u00fa Orsi, called Bukele\u2019s model an example worthy of further study. The center-left Guatemalan government declared a state of emergency to crack down on gang violence this year and welcomed the Trump administration\u2019s help targeting drug traffickers.<\/p>\n<h4>Campaign promises meet reality<\/h4>\n<p>Recently elected politicians\u2019 hard-line ambitions, though, have collided with the practicalities of governing complex and cash-strapped democracies like Ecuador and Chile. They are nothing like tiny El Salvador, where Bukele\u2019s party holds a legislative supermajority.<\/p>\n<p>Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa\u2019s promises in his 2023 campaign included locking up gang leaders on barges and building mega-prisons. He abandoned the floating prisons proposal after taking office, and it took his government until November to open the first mega-prison.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuilding mega-prisons hasn\u2019t been that easy or that straightforward because the country is in a very bad state financially and because President Daniel Noboa still sees himself as a democrat,\u201d said Beatriz Garc\u00eda Nice, policy analyst for the Washington-based Stimson Center think tank.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly three months into Kast\u2019s tenure, pollsters say a skeptical public can\u2019t tell the difference between his security crackdown and that of his left-wing predecessor. His government has organized only two deportation flights after promising to immediately round up and expel Chile\u2019s more than 300,000 immigrants without legal status. A different, more sheepish tone has crept into his speeches. Last month, he came under fire for calling the mass deportation promise \u201ca metaphor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even as he pitched new security measures in a June 1 address, including banning those convicted of attacking police from receiving social benefits, he tried to whittle down his supporters\u2019 outsize expectations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGoverning, as many of you know, means taking responsibility for reality, especially when it\u2019s difficult,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m proceeding step by step because this isn\u2019t something that happens overnight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=15737\">Federal government seeks to halt the first U.S. reparations program for Black people<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>DeBre reported from Buenos Aires, Argentina.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rising crime and extortion in some Latin American countries have fueled support for conservative populists who promise strong-arm tactics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15745,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15746","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-based-on-facts-either-observed-and-verified-directly-by-the-reporter-or-reported-and-verified-from-knowledgeable-sources","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
