Furthermore, I will discuss the aims of the war and whether they can be achieved. Afterwards the causes of the drug war are pointed out. Furthermore, I come to the parties involved inside and outside Mexico. In addition, I want to show the consequences of the war and which people are particularly affected by it. For this purpose, the official figures of the fatalities will be used.
