BARRERA, Nicolás. The citizenship in question: an ethnographic approximation to the police uses of force and the conformation of groups against the police violence. Temas debates (En línea) [online]. 2013, n.26, pp.77-101. ISSN 1853-984X.

Over nearly two years, between 2010 and 2011, we did anthropological fieldwork in various police dependences in the city of Rosario, wich belongs to the Police's Regional Unit Nº 2 in the province of Santa Fe. There, in addition to observations, we interviewed police officers stationed in its two main groupings: "Comando Radioeléctrico" and "comisarías". Based on ethnographic material produced during that period and numerous parallel interviews with relatives of victims of police violence, in this article in particular we propose to reflect on the many meanings of citizenship that are expressed in a context marked by police practices that assume a territorial and discretional character.
