Drug War Mexico: Politics, Neoliberalism and Violence in the New Narcoeconomy
Peter Watt
In this controversial book, Watt and Zepeda contend that the failing 'war on drugs' in Mexico, launched by president Felipe Calerón and funded by US military aid, is in fact a pretext for a US-backed strategy to bolster unpopular neoliberal policies, a weak yet authoritarian government, and a radically unfair status quo.
