Drugs: New Trade Routes

In 2022, global sales of illegal drugs are estimated at $250 billion. Given the low prices for raw materials from poor countries, drug traffickers and their middlemen make huge profits from the sale of processed drugs - cannabis products, cocaine, heroin, opioids and amphetamines. "Mapping the World" traces the global routes of drug trafficking and shows the full extent of the destructive power of the drug economy: from small farmers in Morocco, Afghanistan and Colombia to transit countries such as Mexico and Albania to the countries where the drugs are sold and are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of consumers every year.
