De Cachuela Esperanza a Guajará-Mirim: Recursos, escalas e transformações.

From Cachuela Esperanza to Guajará-Mirim: Resources, Scales and Transformations presents some traits of drug trafficking in the city of Guajará-Mirim (Rondônia) in relation to the circuits that cross the Mamoré River and the people involved in wholesale circuits. In order to understand the scale and organization of these circuits, a historical contextualization of Guajará- Mirim was carried out so that it could be articulated with longer-time histories about the exploration of other natural resources of the region. Such stories raise relevant questions to analyze the operation of illegal markets across international boundaries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
