Social cleansing (Spanish: limpieza social) is social group-based killing that consists of the elimination of members of society who are considered "undesirable", including, but not limited to, the homeless, criminals, street children, the elderly, the disabled. This phenomenon is caused by a combination of economic and social factors, but killings are notably present in regions with high levels of poverty and disparities of wealth. Perpetrators are usually of the same community as the victims and they are often motivated by the idea that the victims are a drain on the resources of society. Efforts by national and local governments to stop these killings have been largely ineffective. The government and police forces are often involved in the killings, especially in South America.

  • Le nettoyage social est toute pratique ou intention visant à éliminer des membres de la société considérés comme « indésirables », notamment les sans-abris, les criminels, les enfants des rues, les personnes âgées, les travailleurs du sexe, etc.. Ce phénomène est causé par une combinaison de facteurs économiques et sociaux et est présent dans les régions ayant un taux de pauvreté et une inégalité des richesses élevés. Les efforts de gouvernements locaux et nationaux dans le but de cesser le nettoyage social ont été largement inefficaces et les forces des gouvernements et de police sont souvent impliqués dans ces genres de meurtre, particulièrement en Amérique du Sud.

  • Sociale zuivering verwijst in een meer figuurlijke betekenis naar een proces waarbij een groep in de samenleving zich systematisch wil ontdoen van een groep die als afwijkend en ongewenst wordt ervaren. De afwijking kan bijvoorbeeld politiek, etnisch of cultureel zijn. De zuivering kan onder andere bestaan uit systematisch dwarsbomen, pesterijen, de-individualisering, ontslag, een beroepsverbod, vervolging, opsluiting, verbanning of doding. In sommige gevallen 'verdwenen' dissidenten spoorloos en vernamen hun verwanten niets meer van ze. (nl)
  • Limpeza social é um termo da sociologia que se refere à eliminação de elementos sociais "indesejáveis", como criminosos, e sem-tetos. O termo se popularizou no final da década de 1980, quando organizações clandestinas começaram a praticar limpeza social em vários países latino-americanos. (pt)
