June 14 | Drug Policy in Latin America | Great Decisions
The issue of migration to the United States from Latin America has overshadowed the war on drugs, which has been underway for decades with little signs of progress. What are the roots and the bureaucratic logic behind today's dominant drug policies in Latin America? Is it time to reconsider punitive drug policies that disrupt supply chains and punish drug possession?
Join WorldBoston for a discussion of this complex topic with Dr. Evan Ellis, Research Professor of Latin American Studies at the U.S. Army War College Strategic Studies Institute, on June 14th from 6:00 to 7:30 PM ET at the Boston Public Library. The program will also be streamed to Zoom from 6:00 to 7:00 PM ET.
