Whack-a-mole: Manufactured Mayhem in Mexico

An analysis of the political and economic dynamics behind the War on Drugs, taken from an article in the London Review of Books

Manufactured Mayhem in Mexico: "Ben Ehrenreich at the London Review of Books has written one of the best articles on the current situation in Mexico that I have seen. ... As Ehrenreich points out in the succinct but detailed historical background he provides, the current Drug War-fueled destruction is just part and parcel of a larger assault on the underpinning of Mexican society -- a wider campaign that includes brutal economic war, and the relentless militarization of society on both sides of the border." Oct. 30, 2010, Pacific Free Press
