Overview

Una historia intelectual de la hegemonía que funcionó como la plataforma para lanzar la “guerra contra el narco”: primero desde un plano simbólico y después como una campaña permanente de violencia organizada.

El fenómeno del narcotráfico en México ha estado siempre determinado por el lenguaje. Durante más de cuatro décadas, el sistema político mexicano ha logrado imponer la narrativa sobre el "narco" que la sociedad en general ha aceptado como la explicación dominante de los altos índices de violencia en el país.

Basado en una investigación de archivos oficiales, reportajes periodísticos, estudios académicos y producciones culturales sobre el tráfico de drogas, Oswaldo Zavala revisa el arco histórico del lenguaje en el que se inscriben el relato de guerra en nuestra sociedad contemporánea y la ilusión de organizaciones criminales como el enemigo doméstico. Dedica especial atención a las incontables novelas, películas, canciones, estudios académicos y piezas de arte conceptual que reiteran la misma narrativa que atribuye a los supuestos "cárteles" toda la responsabilidad de la corrupción y la violencia generalizada en México.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

It is an intellectual account of the hegemony that operated as launching pad for “the war against the cartels”—first on a symbolic level, and afterwards as an ongoing campaign against organized violence.

After researching official documents, news reports, academic studies, and cultural productions about drug trafficking, Oswaldo Zavala reviews the story arch of the language in which a war tale is inscribed, with interchangeable characters in variable places that make up the illusion about narco in our contemporary society, giving special attention to cultural products about the drug trade in general.
