1. Drug Cartels Do Not Exist
Narcotrafficking and Culture in Mexico
This provocative work challenges the conventional narrative surrounding the so-called "drug cartels" in Mexico, arguing that these entities are not the monolithic, organized crime syndicates often portrayed in media and political discourse. Instead, it suggests that the concept of cartels is a construct used to justify militarized interventions and obscure the complex socio-political dynamics at play. By deconstructing the myths and examining the historical and geopolitical factors, the book invites readers to reconsider their understanding of the drug trade and its impact on Mexican society.
