Abstract:
At the end of the Cold War, the term "narcoterrorism" was coined. This concept originally meant ties between drug dealers and terrorist organizations and the countries of the Soviet bloc. The definition of this phenomenon, developed later, is ambiguous and means both methods attributed to terrorists, applied by drug cartels and the financing of their activities by terrorist groups through drug trafficking. This article deals with the first of these meanings and discusses the situation in two Latin American countries. The Colombian Medellin cartel was the first to use typical terrorist measures

Abstract The strengthening of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) during the 1990s was an unintended consequence of a series of tactical successes in U.S. antidrug policies. These included dismantling the Medellín and Cali drug cartels, interdicting coca coming into Colombian processing facilities, and using drug certification requirements to pressure the Colombian government to attack drug cartels and allow aerial fumigation of coca crops. These successes, however, merely pushed coca cultivation increasingly to FARC-dominated areas while weakening many of the FARC's political-mi

Although drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) exist and have an effect on health, crime, economies, and politics, little research has explored these entities as political organizations. Legal interest groups and movements have been found to influence domestic and international politics because they operate within legal parameters. Illicit groups, such as DTOs, have rarely been accounted for—especially in the literature on interest groups—though they play a measurable role in affecting domestic and international politics in similar ways.

Abstract:
This chapter frames dominant stereotypes about Colombia, Medellín, and Pablo Escobar as cultural narratives that, along with US interventionism and Colombia’s potent regionalism, inform the performances of current Colombian stars such as Maluma and broader social scripts about global Colombianidad. It discusses the ongoing effects of Colombia’s more than fifty-year civil conflict on the development of Medellín, focusing on the narratives around Pablo Escobar and their impact on local and global understandings of the city, and underscoring the centrality of Colombian regionalism and racialized spaces on popular scripts of Colombian identities. In order to illustrate the centrality of these imposed and organic metanarratives on external conceptualizations of global Colombianidad, I conduct a textual analysis of the 2019 music video “Medellín,” a collaboration between US performer Madonna and Medellín native and reggaetón superstar Maluma. Deconstructing “Medellín” demonstrates the ways in which popular cultural scripts about regional identities reverberate globally. More specifically, I argue that we must read global Colombianidad through the lenses of racialized regionalism and heteropatriarchy, frameworks that deeply inform the ways in which all Colombians are represented, from both within the community as well as from without.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter’s primary focus is the context of violence in Medellín. We begin with a summary of the violence that has devastated Colombia since the colonial times. We cover the (failed) attempts to build a unified nation-state, the status of Colombia as a neo-colony of the United States, the relationship between state and society, and the forms of inequality and crime experienced by the country’s inhabitants. The goal of this broad contextualization is to explain how the highly unequal structure of Colombian society became a fertile ground for the rise of drug cartels. The chapter then zooms in on the violence perpetrated by the Medellín cartel between 1980 and 2001. Ranging from assassinations to a plane bombing, to daily murders, the acts of violence outlined in this chapter paint a portrait of the reign of terror that turned Medellín into the most violent city in the world. Drawing on a database of news reports of violent events connected to drug cartels in the city along with an archival study of the events, we map the damage wreaked by narco-violence on the city’s daily life, the social interactions of its inhabitants, and the country’s legal and democratic institutions. Using the voices of Medellín’s inhabitants, most of whom were victims of narco-violence, the chapter provides a sensorial account of what it was like to live in a city at war.

Abstract:
Este escrito analiza la importancia del turismo en el desarrollo social de los territorios y cómo, pese al impacto negativo marcado por escenarios de violencia, se han llevado a cabo procesos exitosos de resiliencia especialmente en actividades turísticas apreciadas por los viajeros extranjeros, lo que ha permitido la restauración socio-económica de una ciudad como Medellín, superando los diferentes estigmas que el conflicto armado le imprimió en elementos naturales y sociales. Se precisa una metodología desde el paradigma interpretativo y enfoque cualitativo, tomando como tipo de estudio el análisis de caso, que recurre a información documental y de la experiencia de expertos en el tema, para describir el caso de Medellín desde los antecedentes históricos del conflicto, enmarcando el auge del Cartel de Medellín durante los años 80 y 90 del siglo pasado y las principales características del conflicto actual. De manera cronológica y paralela, se analiza el desarrollo turístico tradicional, el turismo en la época del auge del narcotráfico en la ciudad y el turismo que se vive actualmente. Incluye la relación entre homicidios, turismo extranjero y la identificación de acciones institucionales frente al conflicto residual y la perspectiva turística de la ciudad. Lo anterior desde la perspectiva de la acción del sector turístico como elemento para la transformación del territorio, que evidencia un resultado claro de innovación social en la ciudad de Medellín.

Abstract:
This chapter begins with the American and Colombian anti-drug officials that celebrated Pablo Escobar's “decapitation,” as proof that the kingpin strategy was on its way to eradicating cocaine trafficking in Colombia. It mentions that Medellín's drug bosses met to discuss in the neighborhood of Envigado after Escobar's death, from which emerged the so-called Envigado Office lead by Don Berna. It also describes Don Berna as a formidable Medellín drug trafficker and a former member of the Marxist Popular Liberation Army. The chapter refers to the Cali cartel, an association of four billionaires who managed a worldwide cocaine monopoly, controlling everything from production in Peru and Colombia to sales in the suburbs and cities in the United States and around the globe. It emphasizes how the “decapitations” of the Medellín and Cali cartel's atomized cocaine production and trafficking into smaller entities that were much harder to track and interdict, proving that the kingpin strategy was working.

Abstract:
The introduction lays out the theoretical framework for the exploration of narcocultura in Colombia. First, it establishes how the book’s interdisciplinary nature is the result of simultaneously tackling history, crime, media, and popular entertainment. It also explains how the inclusion of non-academic and “lowbrow” materials enriches our understanding of narco culture and aligns with the premises of New Historicism, postmodernism, cultural criminology, and tabloid studies. They attest with force to the process of continuous intertextual reinscription and constant debates between narratives (interpretations), thereby exposing contemporary cultural myths and beliefs surrounding Pablo Escobar, the Medellín Cartel, and Colombian narcocultura. Next, the initial chapter traces the trajectory of cocaine production, the pioneer traffickers and cocaine producers from Latin America, and how Colombians eventually entered and monopolized the business. It looks at the impact of Pablo Escobar on Colombian cultural production, with an emphasis on the years after 2000. The introduction also explains how the marketing concept of branding and its use of Jungian personality archetypes will serve as a tool to illuminate Escobar’s versatile and dynamic cultural legacy.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 looks into discourses surrounding the Medellín cartel and the present-day value of the Escobar brand. It explores how the popular media in Colombia has reproduced one type of narco, whose flamboyance and caudillo-like attitudes reflect the behaviors associated with Escobar and his ilk, rather than the more discreet figureheads of today’s drug-trafficking. This take on Escobar’s history created a nostalgic version of the hedonistic capos and their conspicuous consumption, thereby strategically resurrecting and fetishizing Colombia’s arguably worst criminal. It also draws attention away from present-day narco alliances that still plague Colombia. The second half of the chapter focuses on narco aesthetics, which appear in every facet of popular culture, from architecture and music to media production, fashion, and the female body ideal. It explores the conflict between Escobar’s tangible legacy (properties, prison) vis-à-vis Medellín’s push toward rebranding itself as a peaceful site of incomparable physical beauty. While the state strives to erase his memory by either neglecting or destroying places of related to Escobar, the latest trends in global tourism are doing exactly the opposite; they promote the exploration of thrilling experiences, thereby reviving Escobar’s popularity worldwide through narco tourism, against the wishes of many locals.
