Abstract

This paper resume the results of a research which aims to create an historical framework to place the currently violence context which Mexico has been inserted since 2006. Aims to demonstrate that in the politic space circulates only one way to interpret the crime, which determine and change political practices. It asseverates that “security discourse” as an hegemonic interpretation of violence from organized crime, has an structural impact on political space. Rebuilding the meaning’s premises that the discourse runs, it will underline the hegemonic operation implicit there, who is acting disconnecting causes of consequences: separating the “criminal” data in the context where emerge.
