| Summary: |
The present text aims to conduct a study based on a documentary review, based on the approach of authors such as Bordieu (1979) and Veblen (1944), among others, which allows us to address the different practices of material and symbolic consumption to analyze the case of the drug trafficker in Mexico, who transited from the sumptuary to the eccentric during much of the second half of the twentieth century. This has symbolic implications that are reflected in the economic power of these characters through the acquired goods, as well as their clothing, in this scenario an image is created around being a drug trafficker that at first was linked to the rural environment that as the years passed, it became more urbanized. This image also implies the expression of a status within criminal organizations that functions as an element of distinction among its members. |
