In this report, Peter Kreuzer presents a detailed data set on this type of violence and answers the questions why the practice is so widespread and why it hardly ever provokes public debate. The analysis focuses on the peace covenant, a central means of symbolic politics to contain violence, but one that unintentionally naturalizes it.}, keywords = {Philippinen; Philippines; Gewalt; violence; Gewaltbereitschaft; propensity to violence; Politiker; politician; Demokratie; democracy; politische Gewalt; political violence; Tötungsdelikt; homicide; Terrorismus; terrorism; Südostasien; Southeast Asia; Friedensbewegung; peace movement}}
