Afghan refugees: the impact on Pakistan / Borthakur, Anchita   Journal Article
Borthakur, Anchita Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract One of the most important arenas that have been profoundly affected by the security situation in Afghanistan is Pakistan's internal security environment. The instability in Afghanistan has had a negative spill-over effect on Pakistan's domestic security scenario, as the Afghan quagmire poses immense implications on Pakistan's domestic framework. One of the important consequences of the Afghan conflict since the 1970s has been the massive inflow of the Afghan refugee population to the neighbouring Pakistan which in following years has brought about a number of demographic and security challenges to the Pakistani society. Therefore along with a number of factors, at this present juncture, Afghan refugees have also become a principal factor in determining Pakistan's Afghanistan policy.

As soon as I get out Ima Cop Dem Jordans: the afterlife of the corporate gang / Ralph, Laurence   Journal Article
Ralph, Laurence Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Sudhir Venkatesh and Steven Levitt's influential 2000 article transformed the way social scientists study gangs by showing the context in which Chicago gang members built an organization modeled on a corporation. But if this research helped to demonstrate that the underground economy is a logical response to the inner city's isolation from the rest of the country, it also makes it difficult to see that the very same factors that have led to urban decay and "social isolation" (i.e., escalating unemployment, the loss of manufacturing jobs, and the emergence of gangs to fill bureaucratic voids) serve to connect gangs to wider social worlds. This study expands upon recent gang research by detailing the improvisational economic and social practices, as well as the intricate narratives, and the social practices that allow Chicago gangs and their members to access a variety of people, institutions, and resources, while marking the diverse modes of historical consciousness that gang affiliates develop. A gang that I will here be calling the "Divine Aces" forms a powerful case in point

Counter-narcotics policies in Tajikistan and their impact on st / Danieli, Filippo De   Journal Article
Danieli, Filippo De Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract Since the early 1990s, Tajikistan has become a key hub along international opiates-trafficking routes. Tajik security agencies lack the equipment and the skills to effectively counter drug-smuggling networks. Funding from external donors has partially contributed to the renovation and modernization of these agencies. Since the late 1990s both the United States and the European Union have been providing assistance to the Tajik government in the field of counter-narcotics. After 2001 the commitment of Western donors grew and a number of new projects have been launched. This article analyses the characteristics of such projects and explores the misperceptions and the contradictions embedded in the international approach to the question of the drug trade in Tajikistan. The great majority of drug-control-assistance projects aim at border enforcement and strengthening of interdiction capabilities; the Tajik Army and law-enforcement agencies are the main beneficiaries. This military focus of counter-narcotics, it is argued, has produced few results in terms of stemming the flow of heroin from Afghanistan, while, at the same time, it has generated unintended outcomes, such as strengthening power ministries and contributing to the formation of strategic partnerships between criminal and governmental actors.

Counter-supply and counter-violence approaches to narcotics tra / Sullivan, John P   Journal Article
Sullivan, John P Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Narcotics and the drug trade contribute to a range of social ills. Among these are social instability, violence, corruption, and a weakening of the state. A range of criminal enterprises, including transnational gangs and drug cartels are engaged in the global trade in illicit drugs. This essay looks at measures to stem this trade through interventions directed against the drug supply and efforts to limit the violence that results from the drug trade. As such it looks at 'counter-supply' and 'counter-violence' approaches. While it emphasizes the impact on the Western Hemisphere - the United States and Latin America - it has international implications for global and national security, intelligence, and law enforcement.

diplomatic failure: the Mexican role in the demise of the 1940 Reglamento Federal de Toxicomanías / Campos, Isaac   Journal Article
Campos, Isaac Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract In 1940 Mexico implemented a new revolutionary strategy in its fight against drug trafficking and addiction with a policy that legalized the sale of morphine to opiate addicts. While this approach to drug addiction was not entirely new or unique, it was strongly opposed by the United States, which responded by declaring an embargo on narcotic shipments to Mexico. As a result, Mexico was forced to abandon the plan just a few months after it was implemented. Often seen as a moment when Mexico might have gone in a different, less prohibitionist drug-policy direction, this episode has been overwhelmingly interpreted as an early and striking example of U.S. drug-control imperialism in Latin America. While such interpretations are not incorrect, they have missed an equally critical element of the story—a series of catastrophic diplomatic failures on the Mexican side which undermined various opportunities Mexico had to salvage the policy in some form. The episode thus stands in contrast to more well-known diplomatic challenges during the period in which Mexico’s diplomats have been lauded for outmaneuvering their U.S. and European counterparts.

Drug booms and busts: poverty and prosperity in a Nicaraguan narco-barrio / Rodgers, Dennis   Journal Article
Rodgers, Dennis Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The income generated by the drug economy can often be substantial for the different parties involved, even at the lowest rung of this illicit trade. Yet the drugs trade is also a notoriously volatile activity, meaning that drug-related prosperity is highly prone to boom-and-bust cycles. Drawing on ongoing longitudinal ethnographic research in urban Nicaragua, this article explores the consequences of the cyclical nature of the drugs trade, tracing its unequal patterns of capital accumulation, as well as what happened to those who benefited from the drug economy when it became more exclusive and then subsequently moved on elsewhere.

Drug dispositif: ambivalent materiality and the addiction of the global drug prohibition regime / Herschinger, Eva   Article
Herschinger, Eva Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract International relations and critical security studies are increasingly including the role of materiality in the study of security practices, inquiring into how objects act as both threat and /or endangered referent. However, objects of ‘dual-use’ – that is, objects that are not only threatening or in need of protection but also beneficial or pleasurable to the human collective – figure less prominently. Drugs are such an ambivalent matter: beneficial in the context of medicine and at the same time threatening in the context of crime. Mobilizing the concept of the dispositif, this article questions how drugs and addiction materialize in the practices of the global drug prohibition regime. I argue that the ambivalence of the material object ‘drug’ is the condition of possibility of the regime. The regime as an epitome of the ‘drug dispositif ’ illustrates how ambivalent objects give rise to expanding security practices and specific power relations, highlighting how (critical) security analyses could profit from greater awareness of ambivalent matters.
