ZEVALLOS TRIGOSO, Nicolás; MUJICA, Jaris; CAMPOS VASQUEZ, Christian e VIZCARDO BENAVIDES, Roberto. Cocaine production and trade system in Peru (a network of segments). Rev. logos cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.2, pp.8-32. Epub 17-Ago-2023. ISSN 2145-594X. https://doi.org/10.22335/rlct.v15i2.1733.
This article describes and analyses the system of actors, activities, and tasks that comprises the Peruvian cocaine production and commerce system. Based on the analysis of interviews with key informants and reports on the cocaine trade, the main result shows a system that works as a segmented and dispersed logic, with actors that compete with each other and that are organised in a conjunctural way. This disputes the idea of a monopoly concentrated on large pyramidal and transnational criminal organisations that control the market, and shows, conversely, the diffuse nature of a system that resembles a global commodity market economy, with various outsourced agents and work parcelling.
