Abstract
- The article discusses how a shift in coca production pushed Peruvian children towards crime. Topics include overdoses by consumers and violence among traffickers and dealers; a recent paper by Maria Micaela Sviatschi of Princeton University that shows that demand for coca leaves, from which cocaine is produced, pushed a generation of children in Peru out of school and into lives of crime; and incentive to coca farmer that declined the production.
