STRATEGIC STUDIES INSTITUTE The Strategic Studies Institute (SSI) is part of the U.S. Army War College and is the strategic-level study agent for issues related to national security and military strategy with emphasis on geostrate- gic analysis. The mission of SSI is to use independent analysis to conduct strategic studies that develop policy recommendations on: • Strategy, planning, and policy for joint and combined employment of military forces; • Regional strategic appraisals; • The nature of land warfare; • Matters affecting the Army’s future; • The concepts, philosophy, and theory of strategy; and • Other issues of importance to the leadership of the Army. Studies produced by civilian and military analysts concern topics having strategic implications for the Army, the Department of De- fense, and the larger national security community. In addition to its studies, SSI publishes special reports on topics of special or immediate interest. These include edited proceedings of conferences and topically-oriented roundtables, expanded trip re- ports, and quick-reaction responses to senior Army leaders. The Institute provides a valuable analytical capability within the Army to address strategic and other issues in support of Army par- ticipation in national security policy formulation.

Grayson December 2010 The views expressed in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Department of the Army, the Department of Defense, or the U.S.

  • Mexico's Security Dilemma: Michoacán's Militias
    Mexico’s Security Dilemma: Michoacán’s Militias The Rise of Vigilantism in Mexico and Its Implications Going Forward Dudley Althaus and Steven Dudley ABSTRACT This working paper explores the rise of citizens' self-defense groups in Mexico’s western state of Michoacán. It is based on extensive field research. The militias arguably mark the most significant social and political development in Mexico's seven years of criminal hyper-violence. Their surprisingly effective response to a large criminal organization has put the government in a dilemma of if, and how, it plans to permanently incorporate the volatile organizations into the government’s security strategy. Executive Summary Since 2006, violence and criminality in Mexico have reached new heights. Battles amongst criminal organizations and between them have led to an unprecedented spike in homicides and other crimes. Large criminal groups have fragmented and their remnants have diversified their criminal portfolios to include widespread and systematic extortion of the civilian population. The state has not provided a satisfactory answer to this issue. In fact, government actors and security forces have frequently sought to take part in the pillaging. Frustrated and desperate, many community leaders, farmers and business elites have armed themselves and created so-called “self-defense” groups. Self-defense groups have a long history in Mexico, but they have traditionally been used to deal with petty crime in mostly indigenous communities. These efforts are recognized by the constitution as legitimate and legal. But the new challenges to security by criminal organizations have led to the emergence of this new generation of militias. The strongest of these vigilante organizations are in Michoacán, an embattled western state where a criminal group called the Knights Templar had been victimizing locals for years and had co-opted local political power.

  • The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) 2009-2013
    DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION HISTORY 2009-2013 Phoenix Drug Kingpin Sentenced to 20 Years for Directing Criminal Enterprise In January 2009, the DEA Phoenix Field Division and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona announced the sentencing of drug kingpin Martin Angel Gonzalez. Martin Angel Gonzalez, 43, of Phoenix, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for operating a large drug trafficking ring out of Phoenix. U.S. District Court Judge Stephen M. McNamee also imposed a $10 million monetary judgment against Gonzalez, who pled guilty to being the leader of a Continuing Criminal Enterprise, Conspiracy to Possess with the Intent to Distribute Marijuana, Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering, and Possession with the Intent to Distribute Marijuana. Gonzalez was charged with various drug trafficking offenses as part of a 70-count superseding indictment related to his leader­ ship of a 12-year conspiracy involving the distribution of over 30,000 kilograms of marijuana worth more than $33 million. Twenty-five other co-conspirators were also charged and pled guilty for their involvement in the conspiracy. During the investigation, agents seized approximately 5,000 pounds of marijuana and more than $15 million in organization­ al assets. These assets included cash, investment accounts, bank accounts, vehicles, jewelry, and real estate properties. Gonzalez’s organization imported marijuana from Mexico, packaged it in the Phoenix area and distributed it to Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Florida, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Califor­ nia. He distributed marijuana to his associates across the country using commercial trucks, cars and commercial shipping compa­ nies. Gonzalez was arrested in Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico, with the assistance of Mexican federal law enforcement authorities.

  • EXPERT REPORT of DR. EVERARD MEADE July 12, 2016 1. Counsel
    EXPERT REPORT OF DR. EVERARD MEADE July 12, 2016 1. Counsel for has asked me to offer expert testimony to assist the Court in evaluating his claim for asylum. I respectfully submit this report, and any corresponding testimony at the hearing, in order to: (1) provide background regarding the events in question and the areas of Mexico in which they occurred; (2) explain the country conditions in Mexico, both in the present and in the period extending back to 2006; (3) offer my opinion on the consistency of the declaration of Mr. with the conditions in Mexico at the relevant times and in the relevant places; and (4) discuss the likelihood that Mr. would be harmed if returned to Mexico. 2. As the Director of the Trans-Border Institute at the University of San Diego, I monitor the conditions in Mexico on a continual basis. As a historian of Mexico and Central America focused on the relationships between violence, memory, and the law, I have tracked patterns of violence and their relationship to the criminal justice system since at least 1998. See attached (curriculum vitae). I have testified before Immigration Courts across the country in conjunction with removal proceedings and asylum applications. 3. Before preparing this report, I reviewed and consulted a number of academic, journalistic, and government sources (from Mexico and the United States), many of which are cited herein. As discussed herein, I conducted certain independent research using resources that I customarily consult when researching country conditions in Mexico and the impact of the latest developments in drug trafficking, organized crime, and law enforcement operations on basic human rights conditions, in particular.
