This book analyzes Mexico's transition from a relatively peaceful kleptocracy controlled by the Tammany-Hall style Institutional Revolutionary Party\/PRI (1929-2000) to a country plagued by rural and urban enclaves of grotesque violence. The author examines the major drug cartels and their success in infiltrating American and Mexican businesses; details the response from the Obama administration; assesses the threat that the continuing bloodshed represents for the United States; and emphasizes the constraints on America's ability to solve Mexico's crisis, despite U.S. contributions of intelligence, military equipment, training, and diplomatic support.","brand":"Praeger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45086872043671,"sku":"9781440829864","price":7675.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781440829864.webp?v=1767266313","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-cartels-the-story-of-mexicos-most-dangerous-criminal-organizations-and-their-impact-on-u-s-security-9781440829864","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
