This monograph is intended to help political, military, policy,
opinion, and academic leaders think strategically about
explanations, consequences, and responses that might apply to the
volatile and dangerous new dynamic that has inserted itself into
the already crowded Mexican and hemispheric security arena, that
is, the privatized Zeta military organization. In Mexico, this new
dynamic involves the migration of traditional hard-power national
security and sovereignty threats from traditional state and
nonstate adversaries to hard and soft power threats from
professional private nonstate military organizations. This dynamic
also involves a more powerful and ambiguous mix of terrorism,
crime, and conventional war tactics, operations, and strategies
than experienced in the past. Moreover, this violence and its
perpetrators tend to create and consolidate semi-autonomous
enclaves (criminal free-states) that develop in to quasi-states-and
what the Mexican government calls "Zones of Impunity." All
together, these dynamics not only challenge Mexican security,
stability, and sovereignty, but, if left improperly understood and
improperly countered, also challenge the security and stability of
the United States and Mexico's other neighbors.
