Jančík, Jan ; Krausz Hladká, Malvína (advisor) ; Svitková, Katarína (referee)
This Bachelor's thesis is focused on description of situation which occurred after presidential elections in Mexico in 2006 when newly elected president Felipe Calderón launched massive operation targeted on eradicating drug cartels using both police and military capacities. This operation however meant huge upheaval and rise of violence caused not only by clashes of cartels with government but also by fights among warring cartels struggling for power and territory. The main aim of this thesis is to provide basic summary of this six years era considering all the main players, their territories and shifting of power and also to find out if the surging death rate after the year 2006 was primarily caused by Calderón's decision to deploy armed forces to fight drug cartels.
