Resumo

The article analyzes the contemporary transatlantic flow of
illegal drugs, taking on account the current transformation
of the connections among South American, African and
European Drug-Trafficking Organizations (ODTs) and the
tendency to securitize this traffic which interests the Brazilian
public, national and regional security and diplomatic policies.
The article presents a history of the transatlantic drug-
trafficking and the its contemporary contours in order to
suggest viable initiatives to cope with this new and aggravated
panorama pushed through by the so-called “war on drugs”.
