Description

Explore the complex relationship between spirituality and the drug trade in this insightful work from Routledge. While many are familiar with figures like Santa Muerte, Jesus Malverde, and Santeria, the deeper connections involving obscure African religions and Latin American folk saints often remain misunderstood. This book examines how these religious practices, primarily used by law-abiding citizens, are appropriated by drug cartels. By studying these narco-cults, readers gain a better understanding of how criminal organizations use religious beliefs to provide psychological empowerment to their members. This text provides necessary context for those studying the intersection of faith and organized crime. It moves beyond common knowledge to explore the specific ways religious culture is utilized within the context of the drug wars, offering a detailed look at the spiritual landscape of these organizations.
