From Protesters to Midlevel Security Threats Looking at the impact of politicization and militarized public security in Venezuela under Nicolas Maduro

Bachelor thesis | International Studies (BA)

Based on the resent Venezuelan economic crisis turned political crisis, this paper discusses how this transition influenced the treatment of protesters. To analyse these events and their interconnectivity, politicisation and militarisation were consulted. Moreover, the effects of continues politicisation on Venezuela's public security were discussed in connection with an increase in militarisation. Through this research securitisation was identified as the connecting element for an increase in militarisation as a result of continues politicisation.
