9907144WilliamsKenneyThis dissertation enhancement grant will support Michael Kenney, under the direction of Dr. Philip Williams, University of Florida, for a study of the Colombian government's anti-drug policies and the drug trafficking enterprises (DTE'S) targeted by these efforts. The study will be based on three hypotheses that explain the failure of the Colombian government to reduce the cocaine and heroin production: the government lack of the necessary amount of anti-drug resources, the government drug -related corruption, and the capacity of the drug traffickers to undermine government anti-drug efforts. Data will be gathered from semi-structured interviews with experts on the drug trade, including US and Colombian government officials, anti-drug analysts, criminal lawyers involved in narcotics cases, and journalists. The research has the potential to make a significant contribution to our understanding of the Colombian DTE's and organized crime. It could also have important implications for US and Colombian counter-narcotic policies, and provide insight to other countries where governments are struggling to cope with transnational criminal enterprises. ***

9907144威廉姆斯·肯尼迪本论文增强拨款将支持迈克尔·肯尼在佛罗里达大学菲利普·威廉姆斯博士的指导下，研究哥伦比亚政府的禁毒政策和这些努力所针对的贩毒企业(DTE)。这项研究将基于三个假设来解释哥伦比亚政府未能减少可卡因和海洛因的生产：政府缺乏必要数量的禁毒资源，政府与毒品有关的腐败，以及毒贩破坏政府禁毒努力的能力。数据将通过对毒品贸易专家的半结构化采访来收集，这些专家包括美国和哥伦比亚政府官员、禁毒分析师、参与毒品案件的刑事律师和记者。这项研究有可能对我们了解哥伦比亚的DTE和有组织犯罪做出重大贡献。它还可能对美国和哥伦比亚的禁毒政策产生重要影响，并为其他政府正在努力应对跨国犯罪企业的国家提供洞察。***
