  • SPRING 1979 61 Here and There: Some Peruvian and Some Colombian Theatre
    SPRING 1979 61 Here and There: Some Peruvian and Some Colombian Theatre WOLFGANG A. LUCHTING Lima must today be one of the saddest cities in the world, even a depressing one in the winter months (June through November, more or less). The traveller reaching its airport with its meaningless but duplicate entry-formalities, and its painfully disorganized, even chaotic customs area, is overwhelmed immediately by the melancholy of Peru's capital: the grey and dreary sky, the polluted air, the clammy, cold and yet sweaty air, the dirt and the public carelessness about it visible all over, the few green areas strewn with what look like the contents of trash-cans or trampled down as with a vengeance into a brownish, bare, and sticky sod. And everywhere poverty. The old center of Lima (Plaza San Martin and its surroundings) has become one huge, sprawling and spilling mass of carts dispensing cheap food and leaving behind them nightly an ankle-deep, slimy, and pestiferous morass. No surprise that the smell of cooking-oil ("Coci­ nero, de los buenos el primero") pervades the city at all hours. And then there is of course the noise of all the thousands of cars honking their horns porque sí, the street manifestations, dispersed by the ominous-looking, water-shooting ar­ mored cars, and the countless street vendors selling simply everything, and then some, and occupying the sidewalks in such breadth that the pedestrian has to maneuver most skill- and carefully so as not to step on one chuchería or another. In a way, these vendedores ambulantes are the most admirable people of Lima: over many years, none of the so many and repeated police actions against them has ever been able to remove them and give the streets, not even the most central ones, back to the pedestrians.

  • Do Bus Rapid Transit Systems Improve Accessibility to Job Opportunities for the Poor? the Case of Lima, Peru
    sustainability Article Do Bus Rapid Transit Systems Improve Accessibility to Job Opportunities for the Poor? The Case of Lima, Peru Daniel Oviedo 1,*, Lynn Scholl 2,*, Marco Innao 3 and Lauramaria Pedraza 2 1 Lecturer Development Planning Unit, University College London, London WC1H 9EZ, UK 2 Inter-American Development Bank, Washington, DC 20577, USA; [email protected] 3 Louis Berger, 96 Morton St, New York, NY 10014, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (D.O.); [email protected] (L.S.); Tel.: +44-7428-236791 (D.O.); +1-202-623-2224 (L.S.) Received: 12 March 2019; Accepted: 10 May 2019; Published: 16 May 2019 Abstract: Investments in public transit infrastructure in Latin America and the Caribbean often aim to reduce spatial and social inequalities by improving accessibility to jobs and other opportunities for vulnerable populations. One of the central goals of Lima’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project was to connect low-income populations living in the peripheries to jobs in the city center, a policy objective that has not yet been evaluated. Building on secondary datasets of employment, household socio-demographics and origin–destination surveys before and after the BRT began operations, this paper examines the contribution of Lima’s BRT system to accessibility to employment in the city, particularly for low-income public transit users. We estimated the effects on potential accessibility to employment, comparing impacts on lower versus higher income populations, and assessed the changes in location-based accessibility to employment before (2004) and after implementation (2012) for treatment and comparison groups.

  • Urban Forced Removals in Rio De Janeiro and Los Angeles: North-South Similarities in Race and City
    \\jciprod01\productn\I\IAL\44-2\IAL207.txt unknown Seq: 1 1-NOV-13 13:43 337 Urban Forced Removals in Rio de Janeiro and Los Angeles: North-South Similarities in Race and City Constance G. Anthony1 In April of 2010, Rio de Janeiro’s mayor, Eduardo Paes, announced that two in-city, poor, and largely Afro-Brazilian neighborhoods, Morro dos Prazeres and Laboriaux, would be cleared and all inhabitants would be forced to move.2 Despite dev- astating winter storms, which had indicated again the precarious- ness of Rio’s hillside favelas, this was not really new news.3 Rio’s favelas have experienced a century of forced removal.4 The early neighborhoods were built in historically undesirable, beautiful, but steeply inaccessible parts of Rio, and today these are impor- tant pieces of Rio’s real estate.5 For more than a century, many such favelas have allowed poor, working class Afro-Brazilians immediate access to the city below.6 While there are incredible challenges with living in neighborhoods cut off from good, or in some cases even basic, city services and infrastructure, the resources of the city at large continued to make these neighbor- hoods highly desirable for those who lived, and as importantly, worked there.7 Cities across the globe use this mandate for the forced move- ment of poor populations out of in-city urban neighborhoods.8 1. Constance G. Anthony is Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at Seattle University. She received her PhD at the University of California, Berkeley. She has published a book on the politics of international aid and technology transfer with Columbia University Press, and articles on US science policy, refugees, and famine in Africa as well as the philosophical foundations of US interventionism.

  • Urban Poverty Reduction Experiences in Cali, Colombia: Lessons from the Work of Local Non-Profit Organisations
    Urban Poverty Reduction Experiences in Cali, Colombia: Lessons from the Work of Local Non-profit Organisations Julio D Dávila IIED Working Paper 4 on Poverty Reduction in Urban Areas This is one of ten case studies that were part of an IIED research programme on “Urban Poverty Reduction Programmes: Lessons of Experience”. The research was undertaken with support from the UK Government’s Department for International Development/DFID (project number R6859) and from the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The publications that are the result of this work are listed at the end of this paper. The ten case studies demonstrate the important roles that local institutions have (or can have) in contributing to poverty reduction in urban areas. They show that: • many aspects of poverty need to be addressed, including not only inadequate livelihoods, income levels and asset bases but also poor quality and often insecure housing, inadequate infrastructure and services, inadequate legal protection of poorer groups’ rights, and “voicelessness and powerlessness” within political systems and bureaucratic structures; • there are often positive multiplier linkages as actions to reduce one aspect of poverty can help reduce other aspects; • there are many possible entry points for reducing poverty (including some for which little or no external funding is needed) and many kinds of local organizations or institutions that can contribute to this; • the form of the local institution that can reduce poverty varies with context; they can be community

  • Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations
    Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations Updated July 28, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R41576 SUMMARY R41576 Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking July 28, 2020 Organizations June S. Beittel Mexican drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) pose the greatest crime threat to the United States Analyst in Latin American and have “the greatest drug trafficking influence,” according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Affairs Administration’s (DEA’s) annual National Drug Threat Assessment. These organizations, often referred to as transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), continue to diversify into crimes of extortion, human smuggling, and oil theft, among others. Their supply chains traverse the Western Hemisphere and the globe. Their extensive violence since 2006 has caused Mexico’s homicide rate to spike. They produce and traffic illicit drugs into the United States, including heroin, methamphetamine, marijuana, and synthetic opioids such as fentanyl, and they traffic South American cocaine. Mexican DTO activities significantly affect the security of both the United States and Mexico. As Mexico’s DTOs expanded their control of the opioids market, U.S. overdoses rose sharply according to the Centers for Disease Control, setting a record in 2019 with more than 70% of overdose deaths involving opioids, including fentanyl. Many analysts believe that Mexican DTOs’ role in the trafficking and producing of opioids is continuing to expand. Evolution of Mexico’s Criminal Environment Mexico’s DTOs have been in constant flux, and yet they continue to wield extensive political and criminal power. In 2006, four DTOs were dominant: the Tijuana/Arellano Félix Organization (AFO), the Sinaloa Cartel, the Juárez/Vicente Carillo Fuentes Organization (CFO), and the Gulf Cartel.
