Description

Drug Trafficking in the Americas analyses the political economy of drug trafficking in Latin America and the Caribbean and its effects on US-Latin American relations. This volume comprises a compilation of recent research done by Latin American and US scholars and other experts. With a multidisciplinary approach, these studies expand existing social science literature in the area. Special attention is given to US drug policy with respect to Latin America as well as multilateral efforts at drug control. Case studies are presented on specific countries and regions, including Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Central America and the Caribbean.
