For almost a decade, the United States, backed by Britain and other Western countries, has tried to smash the powerful and wealthy drug cartels with little success. Coca growing has increased and has now spread into new areas. For 5,000 years the Indians of the Andes have relied on coca, the raw material of cocaine, to ease the harsh realities of their life. Coca has been at the very heart of their culture and economy. But when Western- ers began reducing it down to make cocaine, a savage industry of vast proportions was unleashed. Murder and terrorism have become commonplace as drug cartels protect their territory.The film criticizes the rigidity of U.S. policy which doggedly pursues the foreign producers and traffickers, while ignoring the domestic social problems that create the demand. Extradition of drug traders to stand trial in the United States has led to a blood bath against judges, politicians and law enforcement agents in Colombia. And meantime, poor people in inner cities of both countries have had their lives torn apart by the drug scourge. 001355830 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001355830 546__ $$aEnglish. 001355830 650_0 $$aCoca industry$$zColombia. 001355830 650_0 $$aCocaine industry$$zColombia. 001355830 650_0 $$aDrug traffic$$zColombia. 001355830 651_0 $$aColombia$$xEconomic conditions$$y1970- 001355830 651_0 $$aColombia$$xPolitics and government$$y1974- 001355830 655_7 $$aDocumentary television programs.$$2lcgft 001355830 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747797020 001355830 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?LAWV;1641410 001355830 901__ $$aASP1641410/lawv$$bVaAlASP$$c9101$$tbiblio 001355830 905__ $$uadmin 001355830 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355830$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355830 944__ $$a1784729 001355830 945__ $$aNorth America 001355830 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355830 980__ $$aBIB 001355830 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355830 983__ $$aOnline
