Great read! Lotsa useful links as well for my own writing (mostly focused on Panama), thanks for sharing :-)

Excellent article and sorry to hear about your incident in Mexico and getting punched in the face, hope you are ok after that. One aspect that struck me was the impact of trade liberalisation and the fact in Brazil, as tariffs fell, crime increased. We live in a world where we can expect global trade to change and tariffs for protected industries to reduce (such as agriculture in India, as I explore in my article, link below) could, as was the case in Brazil, this lead us to a more unequal world, which in turn is more dangerous? We hope not, but as it stands now, it looks sadly inevitable.
