Produktbeschreibung
Statistics from Brazil´s Ministry of Justice reveal that, in recent years, the participation of women in criminal activities has expanded dramatically. Women have been mostly arrested for non-violent offenses, in particular for involvement in drug-related crimes. High-scale revenues and numerous job opportunities have been attracting an increasing number of women to the drug world. However, restricting women´s motivations to engage in the drug trade to their social and economic marginalization resonates somewhat simplistic. Based on in-depth open-ended conversations, this research examines life histories of women who have experienced incarceration for drug-related offenses. The scope of this research is to contribute to debates about the level and nature of women´s participation in the drug world, and to explore the diverse factors that motivate women to take part in drug trade activities.
