云南边境地区毒品犯罪特点及对策

当前,云南边境地区毒品犯罪呈现出武装贩毒明显、特殊人群贩毒突出、境内外相互勾结、缅甸籍人员贩毒突出等特点.这源于人们对毒品犯罪的危害认识不足、宣传教育力度不够、受毒品高额利润驱动等原因.要提高打击毒品犯罪实效,必须采取加强综合冶理、完善法律制度、加强区域合作、加强情报调研工作、加大专项打击力度等措施.

ORGANIZED CRIME AND THE TRAFFICKING OF RADIOLOGICAL MATERIALS

Based on unique empirical data, including interviews with smugglers of radiological materials and the investigators who track them, this article discusses nuclear smuggling trends in the former Soviet republic of Georgia. Smuggling in Georgia mainly involves opportunist smugglers and amateurs, as opposed to professional criminals and terrorists; however, this does not mean that radiological smuggling is devoid of professionalism or organization. The article demonstrates that professional criminals are rarely involved in smuggling due to the unreliable nature of the market for radiological materials and the threat radiological smuggling could pose to professional criminals' ability to wield political power and operate legal commercial enterprises.     

Ungoverned space? Examining the FARC's interactions with local populations in Northern Ecuador

The Ecuadorian state has long been absent from the regions along its northern border with Colombia. I argue that this lack of state presence has allowed non-state armed groups and criminal organizations space to not only operate from these areas, but also, to challenge and change the relationship between local populations and the Ecuadorian state. After reviewing theoretical approaches to concepts of changing security paradigms and ungoverned space, the article details the conditions that have allowed armed groups, specifically the FARC, to take advantage of the lack of state presence along Ecuador's northern border.     

Transforming Mexico’s energy field: the intended consequences of a drug war

ABSTRACT

By utilizing the theory of Strategic Action Fields (SAFs), the present article explains how a new meso-level social order seems to have emerged in Mexico as a result of the paramilitarization of organized crime, militarization of security, and the opening of Mexico’s energy sector to private investment. This work describes the transformation of Mexico’s energy field after a process of major constitutional and economic changes that were the consequence of a security crisis and an agenda of energy reform for which the so-called ‘drug war’ was a key underlying foundation.     

新型毒品犯罪与对策研究

所谓新型毒品是相对鸦片、海洛因等传统毒品而言的,主要指人工化学合成的致幻剂、兴奋剂类毒品,是由国际禁毒公约和我国法律法规所规定管制的、直接作用于人的中枢神经系统,使人兴奋或抑制,连续使用能使人产生依赖性的精神药品。中国每年被冰毒、氯胺酮等新型毒品吞食的社会财富以百亿计。新型毒品犯罪给我国禁毒工作带来了新挑战,在分析新型毒品犯罪特点的基础上,找出打击新型毒品犯罪所面临的问题,构建科学的新型毒品犯罪打防控对策。

Recruitment and abuse of trafficked children in south-west Nigeria

This article examines the recruitment and transportation of internally trafficked children from Benue State in the north-central geo-political zone of Nigeria to Oyo State in the south-western zone of Nigeria. The study is essentially qualitative: with the aid of the snowball sampling technique, in-depth interviews (IDIs) were conducted with drivers, employers and trafficking agents in two recipient communities in Ibadan. The findings show that human rights abuses manifest at the recruitment, transportation and destination phases. The human rights abuses include the recruitment of underage children for domestic work outside their immediate family environments; transportation under inhumane conditions; restriction of movement at traffickers' ‘warehouses’; non-disclosure of amount payable for the services of domestic servants by agents/traffickers; exclusion of domestic servants in wage negotiations; and violence by employers. In view of these, there is a need for the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons to strengthen its internal trafficking campaign.     

边防毒品案件侦查协作机制研究

边境地区是我国毒品案件最为集中的地区,公安边防部门作为毒品案件的主要侦查机关,要提高侦办毒品案件的效率,话须依靠侦查协作。当前,我国边防毒品案件的侦查协作机制已经初步形成。与此同时,该协作机制也存在着不少问题与不足。对这些问题与不足进行探讨,并加以改进是十分必要的。
