在经历了近七年与墨西哥“毒品战争”有关的不断升级的暴力事件后,2013年,墨西哥进入了国际危机组织(icg)面临暴力危机的国家的“观察站”。在这篇文章中,我们批判性地质问icg的这种“墨西哥转向”,以及其伴随的危机知识生产形式。通过运用批判性政策分析和后殖民安全研究的分析见解,我们强调了嵌入在墨西哥的安全危机的icg的角度西方中心主义。在分析毒品贩运,国家地位和土著司法问题的这种观点时,我们展示了这种西方中心主义如何产生去政治化和过度技术官僚的危机叙事。文章的结论是,通过其以西方为中心的“墨西哥转向”,国际危机小组已经能够重申其作为一个独特的影响力和国际公认的危机专家的地位,展示其对新出现的危机局势的认识,以及其拥有必要的危机解决专业知识。
After nearly seven years of ever-escalating violence related to the Mexican ‘war on drugs’, in 2013 Mexico entered the International Crisis Group’s (icg) ‘observatory’ of countries facing a violent crisis. In this article we critically interrogate this ‘Mexican turn’ of the icg, as well as its accompanying forms of crisis knowledge production. By applying analytical insights from critical policy analysis and postcolonial security studies, we highlight the Western-centrism embedded in the icg’s perspective on Mexico’s security crisis. In analysing this perspective on questions of drug trafficking, statehood and indigenous justice, we demonstrate how this Western-centrism produces a de-politicising and overly technocratic crisis narrative. The article concludes that, through its Western-centric ‘Mexican turn’, the icg has been able to reaffirm its standing as a uniquely influential and internationally recognised crisis expert by showcasing its awareness of newly emerging crisis situations, as well as its possession of the necessary crisis-solving expertise.
