El riesgo de ser un dealer: el involucramiento de jóvenes universitarios en el microcomercio de marihuana en Lima Metropolitana / The risk of being a drug-dealer: the involvement of university students in the retail drug-dealing of marijuana in Lima Metropolitana

Pastor Armas, Alvaro 10 April 2018 (has links)
The article analyzes the involvement of seven university students in drug dealing in Metropolitan Lima. This qualitative study based its analysis on semi-structured interviews and seven-month fieldwork.The article evidences that the experience as recreational drug users allows them to grasp basic routines related to the market: who, where and how to buy drugs. Based on that previous experience, students get involved in marijuana exchanges because: (i) they want to sell it in order to smoke for free / (ii) they have a good connection with and become a broker for their friends, or (iii) they are interested in generating extra-money to maintain a lifestyle associated with recreational consumption in middle-class university contexts (going to parties, going on trips, buying other drugs, among others).Subsequently, students emphasize their interest in generating monetary incomes and begin to sell marijuana more frequently and in greater quantities. This escalation does not lead to the development of and identity as a ‘drug-dealer’, nor an involvement in other criminal activities. / El artículo analiza el involucramiento de siete jóvenes universitarios en la venta de marihuana en Lima Metropolitana. Este estudio cualitativo basó su análisis en entrevistas semiestructuradas y en un trabajo de campo de siete meses. Se identifica que la experiencia como consumidores recreacionales de drogas permite que los jóvenes aprehendan rutinas básicas referidas al mercado: quién, dónde y cómo comprar drogas. Sobre la base de esa experiencia previa, los jóvenes se involucran en los intercambios de marihuana porque: (i) quieren vender para fumar gratis / (ii) tienen una buena conexión y se convierten en intermediarios de sus amigos, o (iii) tienen interés en generar un dinero adicional para para solventar un estilo de vida asociado al consumo recreacional en contextos universitarios de clase media-alta (salir a fiestas, irse de viaje, comprar otras drogas, entre otras). Posteriormente, enfatizan su interés en generar ingresos monetarios y empiezan a vender marihuana con más frecuencia y en mayores cantidades, sin que dicho escalamiento signifique un desarrollo de una identidad como «microtraficante» ni un involucramiento hacia otras actividades delictivas.
