This book analyzes the main contours of contemporary drug trafficking, with particular attention to heroin and cocaine. It focuses on the politics and economics of the key producing regions and on the transnational criminal organizations that supply the drugs to the consumer nations, especially the United States and Western Europe. Having looked at this new threat to national and international security, contributors identify and assess existing policy responses and discuss alternative policies that might prove more effective.
