The contributors to\u00a0Cocaine<\/i>\u00a0analyze the contemporary production, transit, and consumption of cocaine throughout the Americas and the illicit economy’s entanglement with local communities. Based on in-depth interviews and archival research, these essays examine how government agents, acting both within and outside the law, and criminal actors seek to manage the flow of illicit drugs to both maintain order and earn profits. Whether discussing the moral economy of coca cultivation in Bolivia, criminal organizations and drug traffickers in Mexico, or the routes cocaine takes as it travels into and through Guatemala, the contributors demonstrate how entire ways of life are built around cocaine commodification. They consider how the authority of state actors is coupled with the self-regulating practices of drug producers, traffickers, and dealers, complicating notions of governance and of the relationships between economic and moral economies. The collection also outlines a more progressive drug policy that acknowledges the important role drugs play in the lives of those at the urban and rural margins.<\/p>\n

Praise<\/h3>\n
\u201cThrough its attention to both the transnational cocaine commodity chain and the locally specific moral economies that have developed along it,\u00a0Cocaine<\/i>\u00a0presents an innovative and urgent perspective. This highly original and engaging volume makes significant contributions to studies of crime, governance, economics, and Latin American studies.\u201d \u2014 Rivke Jaffe, author of\u00a0Concrete Jungles: Urban Pollution and the Politics of Difference in the Caribbean<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cA beautifully curated collection of rich and nuanced work surrounding cocaine, this outstanding book should be read across disciplines\u00a0by policy makers, geographers, sociologists, anthropologists, historians, and sensible political scientists.\u201d \u2014 Graham Denyer Willis, author of\u00a0The Killing Consensus: Police, Organized Crime, and the Regulation of Life and Death in Urban Brazil<\/i><\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
