Plan Colombia in context of american War on Drugs and War on Terror
Kvačková, Karolína ; Hornát, Jan (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
This bachelor thesis is concerning Plan Colombia, U.S. initiative to help Colombian State to fight drugs - its production, trafficking and selling. Nonetheless within the years the so called War on Drugs turned into initiative fighting insurgency groups as well, including FARC, ELN and AUC. Main goal of this research is to proof that Plan Colombia can be sorted to War on Drugs as well as War on Terror which occurred after the 11th of September 2001. This hypothesis is supported by three arguments. Firstly, the U.S. approach to counternarcotic changed. We can see the change especially in U.S. legislative, which changed directly after 11th September and the Plan Colombia with it. Second argument is based on fact that the financing of the program clearly changed in 2002 to more military based budget. And as last argument stands the ineffectiveness of the Plan on counterdrug bases. That is linked to the lack of assistance in development projects which backed up the eradication program. In the thesis the arguments are deeply examined and on the basis of these arguments I think I confirmed my hypothesis. Even though we have to note that Plan Colombia in action before 11th of September is not applicable since the there were no such circumstances as after that date.
