Sumario:This article analyzes the elements that conditioned the formulation of public policy of the Security departament form Santa Fe in relation to the local drug phenomenon in Rosario between 2012 and 2015, taking as study case "Los Monos". It is argued that the government agenda incorporated the theme in terms of "combating drug trafficking" using the predominant version of the public agenda. The media construction around the "narco issue" presented an enemy, another easily characterized as threatening in the face of public opinion. The problematization that the Ministry of Security made used that media characterization to try to get out of the trap of the critical juncture framed with a sustained increase in the rate of intentional homicides.
