Letalidade e ilegalismos de negócios em uma tríplice fronteira sul-americana: Primeira aproximação.

Lethality and Business Illegalisms on a Triple South American Border: A First Approximation discusses the relationship between illegalisms and lethality through research conducted in the city of Tabatinga (AM), located in the border between Brazil, Colombia, and Peru. Firstly, it introduces three aspects often associated with the city and used to characterize it as a problematic place: homicides, cocaine markets, and institutional density. Secondly, an alternate hypothesis is formulated to re-situate the issue under different empirical-analytical parameters, seeking to highlight the political and economic networks that regulate the cocaine market and produce lethal effects through pistolagem and extermination groups.
