This study is based on five years of ethnographic fieldwork with Colombian drug traffickers (traquetos) in The Netherlands and Colombia. The author has uncovered the social world of traquetos: how and why they get involved in illicit activities, the nature of their work, and how they organize their businesses. This book will be valued by criminologists, social scientists, drug researchers, policymakers, organized crime scholars, and by those interested in Colombia, Latino immigrants issues, and the cocaine business.
In the current processes of political, economic and cultural
changes serious cross-border forms of organized crime receive
unprecedented attention as spectacular global media events, as
'threats' of all sorts, and as priority targets of criminal policy
and political agendas. Most books on 'global organized crime' focus
on one particular region, topic or event, and are written from one
specific theoretical and disciplinary framework.
