Anotace

V originále

Conflicts and their inevitable lethal potential affect the state of security and everyday life of ordinary people, institutions and whole states. Mexico is not an exception. The Drug War or La guerra contra el narcotráfico generally refers to an intrastate armed conflict initiated as a counter drug policy against the activities of organized crime groups by the Mexican government in the late 1990s. Since then, the formal mode of dynamics has been continuously changing with several challenges for the society and its future development. Based on Calderón’s 6-years presidential term (2006-2012), the goal of this chapter is to evaluate the patterns of conflict interaction and to identify the impacts on everyday life of Mexican communities. The period of the last six years has been critical in terms of open brutality and wide spreading violence that the federal government has responded to by the engagement of military troops which were sent to the northern parts of country. According to many scholars, it has impaired the fragile balance between the drug cartels and created the environment of never-ending clashes. The seriousness and numbers of violent incidents have been steadily increasing ever since without any positive outlook.
