Drug trafficking

It can be defined thus:

how it arises?
Well, the history of drug trafficking is very old, this problem has already been long
however, one of "origins" was by the famous opium war, when with the use of more
open and blatant violence England and France opened the gates of China in the 19th
century, this in order to introduce and promote the consumption of opium and this
only to improve the economy of this country.
Currently, crime organized, or as we all have heard him, drug trafficking, because it
can
relate to a historical event happened in the USA in the year of 1933, when the law of
the prohibition of the alcoholic beverages, is accepted.
According to historians with the establishment of this law in the United States, was a
great increase of producers illicit, illegal, and illegal distributors of alcohol, known as
gangster bands, which I think a moment of insecurity in the United States.
However, some time later, the be annulled this Act, as it was expected, the gangster
were "jobless", by which they had to find other methods of survival and quickly they
deregulated, this gave them a great economic power. Thus they were spreading and
people began to get into this "business" illegal, of course; even as authorities, as it is
known today.

What is it?
Drug trafficking is the illegal trade in toxic drugs
in large quantities. The process (which begins
with the cultivation of substances, continues with
production and ends with the distribution and
sale) tends to be carried out by various illegal
organizations (called posters) that specialize in
different parts of the chain. The largest groups
engaged in drug trafficking tend to have
international presence and boast a power similar
to that of a Government. Its members have
dangerous weapons and their leaders manage
huge sums of money

Kinds of drug trafficking

Air traffic: It consists of one who uses as a means of
transit, ships or aircraft as public or private, so
transported via air narcotic or psychotropic substances.

Maritime traffic: It consists of one who uses as a means

of transport vessels, ships, etc., so transported via
maritime narcotics or psychotropic deposited in
container or other parts of the ship.
Land traffic: Consists of one who used as a means of
transit, vehicle, or any means of road transport, so it
traffic via terrestrial narcotic or psychotropic
substances, whatever its form packaged.

Causes of drug trafficking:

Among the main causes would be: * the
unbalanced and unfair social structure in which it
is noted unemployment, lack of housing, hunger,
marginalization;
* The opportunity for fast and easy enrichment;
* The enormous economic advantages derived
from this business;
* The inversion of values in a humanity that
passes all standard and any law;
* Lack of education and awareness;
* Lack of appropriate controls;
* Bad policies of the governing

Consequences
Drug trafficking is trafficking in illicit drugs. This produces
things such as dependence, which leads to crime and also to
finance the guerrillas. The permissive and fatalistic attitudes
of the past, have made it possible that the problem of drugs
has reached the proportions of epidemic we face today. The
link of the current problem of drug traffickers, goes beyond
the repression and the issues of public health, because it
makes a threat to the economic and social order in the whole
world.
The drugs produce addiction in all people and also the loss of
doing things. Being one dependent on Narcotics, that traffic
their drugs generate more money, so continue dealing to
make even more money.

Kinds of
drugs

Alcohol: Although it is a legal drug in the

world today does not mean it does not
cause mental disorders in those who
consume it. And although many people do
not know, alcohol is addictive.
Snuff: Contains nicotine. Nicotine triggers a
series of disorders in all mechanisms of the
body and primarily in the cardio circulatory
area. The sum of all culminate in irreversible
heart damage, heart attack or sudden
death. It is also a legal drug.
Cocaine: Cocaine is a powerful stimulant of
the central nervous system, derived from
the leaves of the coca bush Erythroxylon
native South America, especially in Peru and
Bolivia, where it flourishes in the temperate
valleys of about 1,500 m. above sea level.
Marijuana: Marijuana is obtained from the
flowers and young leaves of the female
plant species Cannabis sativa, a herb of the
hemp family that plays without a special
crop. The resin, a yellow, sticky substance, is
produced by the plant as a shield against
the elements.

The consequences of drug addiction

The addict can not stop eating without great effort and
help, this person can not live without thinking about drugs.
Su mente ser un desorden y poco a poco se ir
deteriorando. Su memoria fallar al igual que su rapidez
mental y capacidad de habla.
The young drug addict will have problems in your family,
with friends, at school or in college.
It is increasingly more distance from his family and beings
who just want the best for him.
The individual set back from all confused and not knowing
what to do.
The drug also produces crime, spends all his money on
drugs, go to theft and evil to get what you need.

DRUG TRAFFICKING IN THE

WORLD
It is important to note that Colombia is a country that the world
tends to be related to the production and export of drugs and for
this reason the good name of Colombians has been defamed in
the course of time, usually a Colombian who will to travel abroad
has a different a person who is a Colombian national treatment.
Remarkably, the drug leads to several problems in the world,
among them: drug addiction, poverty, marginalization, social
inequality, corruption, impunity, among others.
poverty and marginalization increases when drug trafficking and
that it generates more violence and thus leads to a social
imbalance, violence is generated because there is divergence
between the ideals of government and drug traffickers also can
not forget that drug addiction causes health problems, and it is
very difficult to control because after incurring it is too
complicated to overcome.
