有组织犯罪造成的强迫流离失所现象研究很少，了解也很少。基于2013年进行的实地研究，本文通过分析席卷萨尔瓦多、危地马拉和洪都拉斯--中美洲北三角国家--和墨西哥的令人震惊的新一波强迫流离失所的广泛动态，纠正了这种情况。报告特别侧重于该区域三种主要类型的有组织犯罪集团--马拉街头帮派、中美洲贩毒集团和墨西哥贩毒集团--在挑起这一流离失所事件中所起的作用。事实表明，这些群体之间的结构差异既影响到它们造成的流离失所形式，也影响到流离失所者由此产生的流动模式。然后专门审议有组织犯罪集团造成的这一新的强迫流离失所浪潮对学术和人道主义实践的影响。
Forced displacement generated by organized crime is a little-studied and poorly understood phenomenon. Based on field research carried out in 2013, this article redresses this situation by analysing the broad dynamics of an alarming new wave of forced displacement sweeping El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras – the countries of the Northern Triangle of Central America – and Mexico. It focuses specifically on the role played by three of the main types of organized criminal groups in the region – mara street gangs, Central American drug transporters, and Mexican drug cartels – in provoking this displacement. Structural differences between these groups are shown to influence both the forms of displacement that they produce and the resulting patterns of movement by displaced persons. Consideration is then devoted to the implications for scholarship and humanitarian practice of this new wave of forced displacement generated by organized criminal groups.
