Capturing the Realities of the Drug War with Oswaldo Zavala

In his book, Drug Cartels Do Not Exist: Narcotrafficking in US and Mexican Culture, Oswaldo Zavala argues terms like “drug cartel” that we use to describe drug traffickers were deceitfully created by politicians, corporations, and the military. He says they are the true criminals.

Oswaldo joins us on A Public Affair to explain his perspective.

Oswaldo Zavala is a Professor of Latin American Literature and Culture at The College of Staten Island, Department of World Languages and Literatures and The Graduate Center, Ph.D. Program in Latin American, Iberian and Latino Cultures, City University of New York.
