These ebooks are a series of short- to mid-length presentations of trends in security, energy, and politics in Latin America. I tend to combine stories that I have published in print or online into a longer piece with links to often hard to find sources of information. Other sources range from off-the-record interviews to white papers and government documents. See www.samuellogan.com for more information.

The Reality of a Mexican Mega Cartel
21 pages and four appendices - Mexican organized crime is known for its ability to smuggle anything into the United States. The factions that battle over control of the busiest border crossings into the US are extremely adept at smuggling drugs, chemicals, humans, or just about anything across the border to the north. They smuggle weapons and bulk money back south. From the Tijuana-San Diego crossing to the Matamoros-Brownsville crossing, the Mexico-U.S. border is more porous now than ever before. It is inevitable that one gang will rise to the top. When this happens, the US-Mexico border, already a soft-under belly will be controlled by one Mega-Cartel with the potential to earn over 50 billion dollars a year. It is a reality that is not far off in Mexico’s future and very well could emerge during the term of Mexico’s next president, Felipe Calderon the hand-picked successor of out-going president Vicente Fox.
