The bi-polar security policy of the Cold War has now evolved into a regional focus. However, traditional US thinking about regional security still focuses on \"old-style\" decision making and management practices. This \"old-style\" approach has been applied to the war on drugs.

Focusing directly on the cartels and their centers of gravity which are not currently targeted by the drug control strategy. | Drug Cartels by Steven J Sample, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
