This review is from: Political Economy and Illegal Drugs in Colombia (Studies on the Impact of the Illegal Drug Trade) (Hardcover)

This book brings a fresh look to the problems the country of Colombia has with illegal drugs, but still, it seems lacking in some of its depth of research. While yes, the main problem is in Colombia, I believe this book was lacking in its exploration of other countries, or people, who were perhaps involved in the drug trade. Nevertheless this book did a wonderful job showing what it wanted to show. It showed the drug problem in Colombia and how its not the Colombian's problem simply, but the whole world's.
