In this paper, the school will be replaced with the ghetto wherein regularized police patrols mirror territorial occupation, hyper-surveillance legitimizes notions of civility and inferiority, and through these modalities, generational grief and trauma are annulled by pathologized notions of criminality, whereby the people of the ghetto are held accountable for their own communal vulnerabilities.enThe copyright for the paper content remains with the author.ghettoprisonpolice patrolssurveillancecriminalityvulnerabilityResearch Paper
