description | In this interview, Dr. Katalina Barreiro argues that organized crime and its related crimes have been factors that have exacerbated violence and criminality. This phenomenon is manifested in the appropriation of routes, services and territories by irregular groups, which, in turn, infiltrate the structures of legal economies through money laundering. Our interviewee highlights the lack of standardized policies on a global scale to punish this crime, as well as the existence of nations in which this type of crime is not included in their legislative frameworks. She raises other elements for discussion, such as the absence of the role of Latin American integration mechanisms in security matters, border cooperation between Colombia and Ecuador, the challenges of President Noboa in the face of transnational crime, the vulnerabilities of computer systems to cyber-attacks and the position of Ecuadorian foreign policy in the face of the geopolitical conflicts between Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas. |

This phenomenon is manifested in the appropriation of routes, services and territories by irregular groups, which, in turn, infiltrate the structures of legal economies through money laundering. Our interviewee highlights the lack of standardized policies on a global scale to punish this crime, as well as the existence of nations in which this type of crime is not included in their legislative frameworks. She raises other elements for discussion, such as the absence of the role of Latin American integration mechanisms in security matters, border cooperation between Colombia and Ecuador, the challenges of President Noboa in the face of transnational crime, the vulnerabilities of computer systems to cyber-attacks and the position of Ecuadorian foreign policy in the face of the geopolitical conflicts between Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas. En esta entrevista la Dra. Katalina Barreiro sostiene que el crimen organizado y sus delitos conexos han sido factores que han exacerbado la violencia y criminalidad. Este fenómeno se manifiesta en la apropiación de rutas, servicios y territorios por parte de los grupos irregulares; los cuales, a su vez, infiltran las estructuras de las economías legales mediante el lavado de activos. Nuestra entrevistada subraya la carencia de políticas estandarizadas a escala global para castigar este delito, así como la existencia de naciones en las que tal tipo penal no figura en sus marcos legislativos. Plantea otros elementos para la discusión, como la ausencia del rol de los mecanismos de integración latinoamericanos en asuntos de seguridad, la cooperación fronteriza entre Colombia y Ecuador, los desafíos del presidente Noboa frente al crimen transnacional, las vulnerabilidades de los sistemas informáticos frente a los ciberataques y la postura de la política exterior ecuatoriana frente a los conflictos geopolíticos de Rusia-Ucrania o Israel-Hamás Instituto de Altos Estudios Nacionales IAEN 2024-01-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/343 10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n18.2024.343 Estado & comunes; Vol. 1 No. 18 (2024): Security in Latin America: challenges and threats; 203-208 Estado & comunes; Vol. 1 Núm. 18 (2024): Seguridad en América Latina: desafíos y amenazas; 203-208 2477-9245 1390-8081 10.37228/estado_comunes.v1.n18.2024 spa https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/343/583 https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/343/584 https://revistas.iaen.edu.ec/index.php/estado_comunes/article/view/343/586 International Internacional Derechos de autor 2024 Katalina Barreiro Santana https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 |
