Comparison of territorial versus drug trafficking networks. 520 $a This study examines illicit drug networks in Mexico and explains why the state targets certain types of networks more forcefully than others. Jones classifies drug networks into two basic types, "territorial" and "transactional" networks. Transactional networks focus on trafficking and are more likely to collude with the state through corruption. Territorial networks, which seek to control territory for the purpose of taxation, extortion, and their own security, trigger a strong backlash from the state. They encroach upon the state's most fundamental functions--the ability to tax and provide security. Jones uses this typology to discuss how state response impacts the resilience of drug networks and what consequences this dynamic will have for Mexico and the ongoing battle between the territorial network, Los Zetas, and their transactional rivals, the Sinaloa Cartel. In addition to extensive archival research, Jones also conducted a year of fieldwork in Mexico City and Tijuana where he built his case study of the Arellano Felix Organization, through in-depth interviews with key figures from Mexican law enforcement, civic leaders, scholars, and organized crime victims. 650 0 $a Drug traffic $z Mexico. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008102447 650 0 $a Drug control $z Mexico. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008102446 650 0 $a Organized crime $z Mexico. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006294 650 7 $a Drug control. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01032891 650 7 $a Drug traffic. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00898722 650 7 $a Organized crime. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01047884 651 7 $a Mexico. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211700 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211020600.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3EEB302EEB9D11E7A465B32097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
