Abstract

¿Cuáles son las implicaciones que conlleva la irrupción del sujeto menor de edad que se incorpora al narcomenudeo? En el marco de la estrategia de seguridad denominada “guerra contra el narcotráfico”, la emergencia de los “chavitos narcomenudistas” incide notablemente en la reconfiguración del entramado social. Esto se hace visible a través de una relación tensionada en la que se desenvuelve la triada de actores: La Plaza –agentes de seguridad pública-, jóvenes (narcomenudistas) y usuarios de sustancias ilícitas. Particularmente, este análisis coloca la mirada sobre el sujeto juvenil posibilitado que practica el narcomenudeo y pone el acento en los procesos de reconstrucción de subjetividad, modificación de la conducta y pérdida de legitimidad institucional.

Alternate abstract:

What are the implications of the irruption of the younger subject who joins drug dealing? Within the framework of the security strategy called "war against drug trafficking”, the emergence of "child dealers" has a notable impact on the reconfiguration of the social fabric. This becomes visible through a tense relationship in which a triad of actors unfolds: La Plaza - public security agents - young dealers and users of illicit substances. Particularly, this analysis looks at the possible juvenile subject that practices drug dealing and puts the emphasis on the processes of reconstruction of subjectivity, behavior modification, and loss of institutional legitimacy.
