BARRETO ROZO, Antonio y MADRAZO LAJOUS, Alejandro. The Constitutional Costs of the War on Drugs: Two Case Studies on the Transformation of the Political Communities in the Americas. Isonomía [online]. 2015, n.43, pp.151-193. ISSN 1405-0218.
This paper seeks to provide an analytic framework for tackling a phenomenon that has gone virtually unnoticed so far: the constitutional costs of the war on drugs. In the Americas, policies adopted and implemented to suppress illicit drug markets have required or justified a battery of significant legal reforms and changes in institutional designs and practices. We analyze these settings through the lenses of a category we have chosen to call "constitutional costs" and develop, as a first step in a potentially wider assessment, an analysis of the Colombian and Mexican cases.
