Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué son las drogas? ¿Desde cuándo, por qué y en dónde se producen y se consumen?¿En qué contexto histórico se prohibieron? ¿Por qué el tabaco y el alcohol sí se legalizaron? ¿Quiénes y cómo trafican? ¿Cómo forjaron su leyenda los jefes y jefas narcos, qué es la narcocultura, cómo se establecen los precios de los drogas, cuál es el efecto de este negocio en la economía mundial? ¿Cuándo y cómo se vincularon el narcotráfico y la política? ¿Cuál es el panorama actual y qué opciones hay para el futuro? ¿Quiénes son las víctimas?El narcotráfico se consolidó como un fenómeno global que se ha expandido de forma imparable en todas las regiones del mundo y que acumula víctimas de todo tipo. Estados Unidos es el mercado más grande de consumidores de drogas, y el principal surtidor de armas de los cárteles mexicanos, pero se resiste a modificar sus políticas pese al evidente fracaso de una guerra que no terminó con el consumo, ni con la producción, ni con los cárteles, ni con los narcotraficantes.En este libro, extraordinariamente ilustrativo, la periodista Cecilia González trata con profesionalismo y responsabilidad el grave problema del narcotráfico y propone alejarse de los tabúes para analizarlo a fondo, sin sensacionalismo y con la mirada atenta a las nuevas propuestas que ya recorren el mundo para enfrentar el poder del narco.

Download or read book Gangster Warlords written by Ioan Grillo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Without this testimony, we simply cannot grasp what is going on . . . Americans would do well to read [Gangster Warlords]." --The New York Times Book Review, Editor's Choice From the author of El Narco, the shocking story of the men at the heads of cartels throughout Latin America: what drives them, what sustains their power, and how they might be brought down. In a ranch south of Texas, the man known as The Executioner dumps five hundred body parts in metal barrels. In Brazil's biggest city, a mysterious prisoner orders hit-men to gun down forty-one police officers and prison guards in two days. In southern Mexico, a meth maker is venerated as a saint while enforcing Old Testament justice on his enemies. A new kind of criminal kingpin has arisen: part CEO, part terrorist, and part rock star, unleashing guerrilla attacks, strong-arming governments, and taking over much of the world's trade in narcotics, guns, and humans. What they do affects you now--from the gas in your car, to the gold in your jewelry, to the tens of thousands of Latin Americans calling for refugee status in the U.S. Gangster Warlords is the first definitive account of the crime wars now wracking Central and South America and the Caribbean, regions largely abandoned by the U.S. after the Cold War. Author of the critically acclaimed El Narco, Ioan Grillo has covered Latin America since 2001 and gained access to every level of the cartel chain of command in what he calls the new battlefields of the Americas. Moving between militia-controlled ghettos and the halls of top policy-makers, Grillo provides a disturbing new understanding of a war that has spiraled out of control--one that people across the political spectrum need to confront now.
Download or read book Nobility of Spirit written by Rob Riemen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Riemen insists that if we hope to move beyond the war on terror and create a life-affirming culture, we must address timeless but neglected questions: What is a good society? Why art? Why culture? What is the responsibility of intellectuals? Why anti-Americanism? Why nihilism? Why the cult of death of fundamentalists? In a series of three essays, the author identifies nobility of spirit in the life and work of Baruch Spinoza and of Thomas Mann; explores the quest for the good society in our own time; and addresses the pursuit of truth and freedom that engaged figures as disparate as Socrates and Leone Ginzburg, a Jewish Italian intellectual murdered by Nazis."--BOOK JACKET.
