Drug Mules: Women in the International Cocaine Trade

by Jennifer Fleetwood

Winner of the British Society of Criminology Book Prize, 2015

Fleetwood explores how women become involved in trafficking, focusing on the lived experiences of women as drug mules. Offering theoretical insights from gender theory and transnational criminology, Fleetwood argues that women's participation in the drugs trade cannot be adequately understood through the lenses of either victimization or agency.
