Abstract
HERNANDEZ CHEVEZ, Lang Ying. Routes criticism of the involvement in drug trafficking of women prisoners in Liberia, Guanacaste. InterSedes [online]. 2013, vol.14, n.28, pp.70-89. ISSN 2215-2458.
The article presents the life stories of four Guanacasteca women who participated in illegal drug activity at the time of the study participants were detained in the Criminal Calle Real Center of Liberia. This research was drawn from a qualitative paradigm, and a case study (method) was used. We applied two techniques for data collection: in-depth interview and background check, this allowed us to describe and analyze the situation of each of the participating women. The data collected suggests the existence of a critical path of common involvement in drug trafficking, but with different meanings and experiences in each of the participants. On this tour we determine that such incorporation is a circumstantial and multicausal process which involved various psychosocial vulnerabilities.
