From Border Patrol agents to local police to the National Guard, the Bush and Obama administrations have dramatically increased the security personnel, technology and operations along the U.S.-Mexico border. Meanwhile Mexico, with U.S. assistance, has increased its own security presence in the border zone in order to confront drug trafficking and organized crime.

A panel of officials and experts from the United States and Mexico will discuss whether the increased security investment is working. They will focus on the buildup’s intended and unintended consequences — overall patterns, humanitarian and human rights concerns — for migrants seeking to enter the United States from Mexico.

Date: Wednesday, November 16
Time: 8:00 a.m. – 9:30 a.m.
Location: UCSD Faculty Club
Open to: Invited guests, DRT Member

Panel includes IR/PS Professor Alberto Diaz-Cayeros, USD’s Professor David Shirk, and Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies Visiting Fellow Viridiana Rios.

The panel will discuss the evolution of Mexico’s current public security situation, the factor behind drug related violence, the Mexican government responsein terms of confronting organized crime groups and strengthening the judicial system, and the shared role and responsibility of the United States.

Registration is required. Please register before November 14.
