This book examines different levels of narcotics control
cooperation between the United States, Mexico and Colombia.
Victor J. Hinojosa finds that Mexico is consistently held to a
very different standard than Colombia and that the US often
satisfies domestic political pressures to be tough on drugs by
punishing Colombia while allowing Mexico much more freedom to
pursue different strategies. He also explores the role of domestic
terrorism and presidential reputation in Colombia for the
US-Colombia pair and the role of competing issues in the US-Mexican
bilateral agenda for that country pair, finding that congressional
pressure and electoral tests exert the most impact on US behavior
but that Mexican and Colombian behavior is best explained in other
ways. Together, these findings suggest both the promise of
integrating the study of international relations and comparative
politics and important limitations of the theoretical
framework.
