Drug trafficking and armed conflict: an international perspective on violence una perspectiva internacional de la violencia

Abstract

This article aims to compile a compilation of the violent events that occur in Mexico and Colombia through a recount of data through drug trafficking and the armed conflict to determine the inference that both countries may have in the increase in violence in its last decades. It will seek to investigate how social processes have influenced today, and how they have been reconfigured within the social sphere to determine the factors that infer within violence and that affect the quality of life of citizens. The information will be obtained through the analysis of documentary sources: databases, government institutions, the media and journalistic sources that allow the main findings between the two countries to be collected for their sample and comparison of results.
