Dr. Zulia Orozco Reynoso
During the seminar, we will reflect on criminal violence during 2020-2022 at the border city of Tijuana (Mexico). This period encompasses the Covid-19 health crisis as well as the historic global lockdown and of course, the unimaginable closure of the US-Mexico border for almost two years. This implied strong socioeconomic adjustments in both legal and illegal cross-border markets, which reflected a historic homicide rate during 2021, and the expansion of criminal organizations into the state capital: Mexicali, Baja California.
Dr. Zulia Orozco Reynoso - Full-Time Researcher at the Instituto de Investigaciones Sociales (IIS) at the Baja California State University (UABC for its Spanish acronym), and member of Conacyt, Level 1. She is coauthor of the book "Trafico de armas de fuego en la frontera norte de México". Dr. Orozco's areas of study are: Border Security, Organized Crime, and Illicit Markets in the US-Mexican border, with special focus in the CaliBaja region.
