BBC 1/12/2025 News The Shadow Police: User-Pays Policing in the State of Mexico Police departments across Mexico maintain user-pays police forces that provide protection for a fee. This qualitative study examines the Cuerpos de Seguridad Auxiliares del Estado de México (CUSAEM), one of the largest, most notorious user-pays police forces in the country. While the CUSAEM is a remnant of Mexico’s authoritarian past, I argue that the state has adapted its practices to the contemporary era by maintaining the force’s ambiguous legal status to exploit the growing market for security and shield itself from accountability. Thus, we see how states are not naturally threatened by the rise of the private security market but can instead benefit from it to the detriment of competing private security firms. Moreover, this study highlights the importance of analyzing plural policing cases in the Global South and emphasizes the need to consider authoritarian and colonial legacies when evaluating contemporary public–private security relationships.
