US DRUG POLICY IMPACTS BOLIVIA
Despite the political and
economic instability plaguing the Andean region, the U.S. government maintains a
focus on counternarcotics policy. Even the recent free trade pact (ATPDEA) is
conditioned on countries’ meeting coca eradication and other anti-drug
objectives. The militarized approach of U.S. drug policy exacerbates negative
regional trends and further threatens democratization and human rights in the
Andes.
