A once-thriving border town, it now resembles a failed state. Infamously known as the place where women disappear, its murder rate exceeds that of Baghdad. Last year 1,607 people were killed, a number that is on pace to increase in 2009. In Murder City, Charles Bowden, one of the few journalists who has spent extended periods of time in Juarez, has written an extraordinary account of what happens when a city disintegrates. Interweaving stories of its inhabitants, a raped beauty queen, a repentant hitman, a journalist fleeing for his life with a broader meditation on the town's descent into anarchy, Bowden reveals how Juarez's culture of violence will not only worsen, but inevitably spread north. 0aDrug trafficzMexicozCiudad Juárez. 0aNarco-terrorismzMexicozCiudad Juárez. 0aMurderzMexicozCiudad Juárez. 0aCiudad Juárez (Mexico)xSocial conditions.1 aCardona, Julián,d1960- 2lcccBK c25073d25073 00102lcc4070aPUEAbPUEAcGENd2014-10-10eBooks for Africal0oHV5840.M42 C5826 2010p2014-3617r2014-10-10 00:00:00t1w2014-10-10yBK
