AbstractInformal trading in the global South, particularly in Latin America, is the subject of revanchist urban policy and yet few studies have examined the longer‐term impacts of such intolerant policies on traders. This article explores the evolution and impacts of revanchist policies directed at informal traders in the Andean city of Cusco. It makes two key contributions. First, it documents a shift from early revanchist policies to a post‐revanchist era where policies have become more tolerant of informal traders. However, contemporary policies fall short of a supportive environment for informal trading, hence the authors recommend changes that will ensure informal traders can access the city's streets and become an accepted part of the urban fabric. Second, given the lack of theoretical attention given to the impacts of revanchism, a battlegrounds framework is developed, consisting of spatial, political, economic and socio‐cultural battlegrounds. This framework provides a comprehensive insight into the complex set of interactions that exist between informal traders and the state. It is hoped that the framework will provide a tool for further research into the highly damaging impacts of revanchism across the globe.

Summary In 2009, during an indigenous meeting in the Bolivian Amazonia, the former mojen or trinitary Marcial Fabricano leader was punished with 50 roofs, according to his verdugos, for promoting the territorial division and illegal sale of timber. Fabricano referred to political persecution, denied the accusations and embarked on a legal process against the terrorists in the ordinary course of action. The article analyses, from the point of view of legal anthropology, the causes and elements that characterised this judicial process; the socio-political issues among the clans in which power is disputed in indigenous territory are examined in order to fully understand the background to the case. ; Resumen En 2009, durante un encuentro indígena en la Amazonía boliviana, el exdirigente mojeño trinitario Marcial Fabricano fue castigado con más de 50 azotes, según sus verdugos, por haber promovido la división territorial y la venta ilegal de madera. Fabricano aludió persecución política, negó las acusaciones y emprendió un proceso jurídico a los fustigadores por la vía ordinaria. El artículo analiza, desde la antropología jurídica, las causas y los elementos que caracterizaron este proceso de justicia indígena; además, se examinan las dinámicas sociopolíticas entre los clanes que se disputan el poder en el territorio indígena para comprender integralmente los antecedentes del caso.

Law enforcement institutions throughout the world are embracing New York City's "zero tolerance" approach to policing. Zero tolerance has become a global phenomenon, despite the fact that it has led to increased police brutality, wrongful arrests, racial profiling, & corruption. The global embrace of zero tolerance must be viewed as a component of social reproduction. Though this tactic seeks to uphold authority, it is instead a dangerous strategy that results only in "postliberal revanchism," revenge, & legalized brutality. 19 References. K. Larsen

AbstractThis article examines how the politics of managing global catastrophic risks plays out in a stereotypically 'vulnerable' megacity in the global South. It analyses the disproportionate impact of the 2009 Ondoy floods on Manila's underclasses as a consequence of the failures and partial successes of twentieth‐century developmentalism, in the course of which the Philippine state facilitated a highly uneven distribution of disaster risk. It argues that the selective interpretation and omission of facts underpinned a disaster risk management (DRM) strategy premised on the eviction of slum dwellers. Through the lens of aesthetic governmentality we analyse how elite and expert knowledge produced a narrative of the slum as the source of urban flood risk via the territorial stigmatization of slums as blockages. We also show how the redescription of flood risk based on aesthetics produced uneven landscapes of risk, materializing in the 'danger'/'high‐risk'‐zone binary. This article characterizes the politics of the Metro Manila DRM strategy by introducing the concept of resiliency revanchism: a 'politics of revenge' predicated on the currency of DRM and 'resiliency', animated by historically entrenched prejudicial attitudes toward urban underclasses, and enabled by the selective interpretation, circulation and use of expertise.
