This article aims to analyze the particularities and weaknesses of Colombia and Peru in terms of power (capacities) and development for the consolidation of their strategies to eradicate illicit crops within the framework of their peace agendas given the regime complex on development and the fight against drugs. Much of the weaknesses in their counternarcotics strategies and peace agendas lie in their low capacity to guarantee the means of well-being, progress, and development in the face of restricted semi-material capacities as a result of their pattern of development—rentier and financial—which limits internal cohesion with the provision of public services and prosperity. Thus, development paradigms and the fight against drugs respond to a top-down logic inscribed in the thematic agenda of their foreign policies as opposed to a bottom-up logic, which gives way to democratization and politicization that result from domestic needs in the state-society relationship.
