Sumario:In this article I will present some impacts resulting from the application of a policy of war against drugs in Latin America, encouraged by consecutive American governments in the last decades. I am interested in gathering data about which particular aspects in the area have contributed to the failure of this “combat” policy against production and consumption. It has to be considered that many global initiatives are faced up to particular situations which go against the adjustments proposed to terminate with drugs. With respect to the data gathered about these issues, I suggest considering the different dimensions involved in the problem of drug trafficking and consumption and the global policies oriented to address this problem.
