Resumo: The aim of the article is to propose an analytical framework for the internal conflict in Mexico based upon the ongoing interaction between illegal drugs economy, asymmetric conflict and inter-state cooperation on security matters. For so, we present an critical analysis of the concept of “colombianization” of Mexico, and we attempt to compare both cases on more realistic terms. Accordingly, we criticize the causal link between drug-trafficking and insecurity as we sustain an incremental pattern of rising violence, in which criminal organizations, national government and foreign government (through anti-drug cooperation) create an progressive dynamic of public violence and insecurity by interacting with each other under a proihibicionist constrainment.

Como subsídio, apresenta-se uma análise crítica do conceito de “colombianização” do México e fixam-se parâmetros mais realistas para a comparação entre os dois casos. A partir desse arcabouço, formula-se a crítica à relação causal entre narcotráfico e insegurança, postulando-se um padrão incremental de agravamento da violência, em que organizações narcotraficantes, governo nacional e governo estrangeiro (via cooperação antidrogas) criam uma dinâmica progressiva de insegurança e violência pública ao interagirem entre si sob um constrangimento proibicionista.UFRGS2011-06-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConjunturaAustral/article/view/2074310.22456/2178-8839.20743Conjuntura Austral; Vol. 2 No. 6 (2011); Pág. 121-144Conjuntura Austral; Vol. 2 Núm. 6 (2011); Pág. 121-144Conjuntura Austral; v. 2 n. 6 (2011); Pág. 121-1442178-8839reponame:Conjuntura Australinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConjunturaAustral/article/view/20743/12061Borba, Pedro dos Santos deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-03-05T23:24:18Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/20743Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustralPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oaiconjunturaaustral@ufrgs.br||reisdasilva@hotmail.com||nerint@ufrgs.br||andre.reis@ufrgs.br2178-88392178-8839opendoar:https://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oaihttps://seer.ufrgs.br/ConjunturaAustral/oai2021-03-05T23:24:18Conjuntura Austral - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
