Download or read book The Cocaine War in Context written by Belén Boville Luca de Tena and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Spanish journalist reveals what the Drug War really means: the danger it poses to the political stability of weak democracies, human rights and development and its environmental impact. In an important and desperately needed alternative view on the 'war on drugs, ' Boville explores in depth the relationship betweenthe United States and Latin America, explaining the political need of the U.S. government to develop a useful tool to extend American authority after the Cold War. She depicts Andean society and the cocaine culture, with all of the social, political, environmental and economic changes brought about by drug trafficking, and provides essential information on how the Drug War currently works in order to predict what the future may hold. The book has proven widely popular in Spanish, especially in Latin America. In the complex web of today's politics, this courageous and intelligent text offers an objective, critical look at all aspects influencing the war on drugs. RELEVANT ACADEMIC COURSES: Political Science, International Relations, History, Economics, Latin American Studies, Anthropology. Other works on this topic are mostly anecdotal; none of them provides an historic and environmental perspective, and none gives importance to international relations as this book does. This is an essay about the past and the future, useful for academic purposes, but also for general information about the €current drug war in Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Bolivia and the United States.

Download or read book Andean Cocaine written by Paul Gootenberg and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminating a hidden and fascinating chapter in the history of globalization, Paul Gootenberg chronicles the rise of one of the most spectacular and now illegal Latin American exports: cocaine. Gootenberg traces cocaine's history from its origins as a medical commodity in the nineteenth century to its repression during the early twentieth century and its dramatic reemergence as an illicit good after World War II. Connecting the story of the drug's transformations is a host of people, products, and processes: Sigmund Freud, Coca-Cola, and Pablo Escobar all make appearances, exemplifying the global influences that have shaped the history of cocaine. But Gootenberg decenters the familiar story to uncover the roles played by hitherto obscure but vital Andean actors as well--for example, the Peruvian pharmacist who developed the techniques for refining cocaine on an industrial scale and the creators of the original drug-smuggling networks that decades later would be taken over by Colombian traffickers. Andean Cocaine proves indispensable to understanding one of the most vexing social dilemmas of the late twentieth-century Americas: the American cocaine epidemic of the 1980s and, in its wake, the seemingly endless U.S. drug war in the Andes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The authors show that drugs possessed characteristics that made them a particularly effective means for propagating trade or increasing the extent and intensity of labor. In the early stages of European expansion, drugs were introduced to draw people, quite literally, into relations of dependency with European trade partners. Over time, the drugs used to intensify the amount and duration of labor shifted from alcohol, opium, and marijuana - which were used to overcome the drudgery and discomfort of physical labor - to caffeine-based stimulants, which provided a more alert workforce."--BOOK JACKET.
