Indicators of Esteem

I am on the Editorial Board of two periodicals and have also held various review positions for academic publishing outlets. I am a member of the National System of Researchers, Level I, and have been invited to advise a range of public institutions regarding crime and public security
policy. Most notably, I have provided advice to the Centre for Superior Studies of the Mexican Navy on a number of occasions and in 2002, I was also an Advisor to the Committee of the ‘Plan General de Seguridad Nacional’ (General Plan for National Security). I have co-ordinated over 20 academic events covering topics as diverse as: impunity and corruption; democracy in Latin America; violence; kidnapping; organised crime; serial killers; fear and social insecurity; urban tribes; pornography; social anthropology; pornography; globalization; and, cultural movements. I have also presented over 200 papers at conferences and seminars on a wide variety of topics including those mentioned above.
