Abstract
NUNEZ DE PRADO CLAVELL, Sara and RODRIGUEZ ABENGOZAR, Javier. UN and EU strategy against transatlantic drug trafficking networks. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.37, pp.71-88. Epub Jan 01, 2022. ISSN 1900-6586. https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.864.
With a long history, drug trafficking has been a growing problem in recent decades that has reached global dimensions. This article studies the evolution and current status of the normative strategy of the United Nations and the European Union against this problem, currently embedded in transnational organized crime networks, especially transatlantic networks. It concludes that, despite all the enormous effort in this fight, far from combating it effectively, the results are abysmal, both in the most affected national contexts and at the global level.
