Global drug trafficking intersects with a vast array of
international security issues ranging from war and terrorism to
migration and state stability. More than just another item on the
international security agenda, drug trafficking in fact exacerbates
threats to national and international security. In this light, the
book argues that global drug trafficking should not be treated as
one international security issue among many. Rather, due to the
unique nature of the trade, illegal drugs have made key threats to
national and international security more complex, durable, and
acute. Each chapter examines how drug trafficking affects a
particular security issue, such as rogue nations, weak and failing
states, protracted intrastate conflicts, terrorism, transnational
crime, public health, and cyber security. While some texts see drug
trafficking as an international threat in itself, others place it
under the topic of transnational organized crime, arguing that the
threats emanate from criminal groups. This book, on the other hand,
provides a thorough understanding of how a vast array of threats to
international security are exacerbated by drug trafficking.
