About the book

Through an ethnographic case study of Chicago's Little Village, 'Wounded City' demonstrates how competition for political power and state resources undermined efforts to reduce gang violence. Robert Vargas argues that the state, through different patterns of governance, can contribute to distrust and division among community members.
