^^^ Good analysis. I might have to watch this film again. I saw it once but it didnt really get my full concentration and i got bored with it. But still racism was a theme i think and like you rightly pointed out "it was about misunderstanding, isolation, and internal leading to external conflicts."...

i think the reductions might have more to do with the police prescense than the effectiveness of on the spot fines. Ill bet the crimes disrupted in the city centre have been displaced and occurred on the finge of the city centre aswell as elsewhere. Still the police can use it to show their doing a ...

One of the first and best books looking at the modern street gang violence emerging in the capital. Im sure as this problem grows so will the amount of literature on the topic.

The reason that Alonso does not want just links to articles is that then if the article expires the forum would be full of a grip of useless links. Which makes sense.

oh yea lol i forgot that. thats why i always follow the link by the full article.
