마약-테러리즘이란 마약거래상들이 마약류판매를 확대할 목적으로 테러공격을 자행하는 경우 및 불법조직에 속하는 테러집단이 테러자금을 마련할 목적으로 마약거래에 관여하는 경우를 동시에 함축하는 개념이다. 중요한 문제는 마약류거래의 배후에 전투력이 막강한 군대조직이 존재하는 경우가 많다는 사실이고, 이러한 상황은 곧 합법정부의 공권력에 대한 강력한 도전이 되므로 세계 각국의 마약류규제 노력을 한층 더 어렵게 만들고 있다. 마약류 자체가 인류의 보건과 사회질서에 미치는 것도 문제지만, 마약거래로 얻어지는 막대한 이윤이 정치적 목적을 위해 인명을 무차별 살상하는데도 마약류와 테러리즘의 관계를 단절시키기가 어려워 세계의 많은 국가들이 고민에 직면한 상태다. 이런 실상을 배경으로, 이 연구에서는 (1) 마약테러리즘의 개념, (2) 세계 주요 지역의 마약테러리즘 확산실태, (3) 마약조직의 효과적 규제방안 등을 중점적으로 고찰해보았다.

The links between various aspects of the criminal world are evident because those who use illicit activities to further or fund their lifestyle, cause, or well-being often interact with others involved in various illicit activities. For example, organizations that launder money for drug traffickers also launder money for arms traffickers, terrorists, etc. Criminals, by exploiting advances in technology, finance, communications, and transportation in pursuit of their illegal endeavors, have become criminal entrepreneurs. Perhaps the most alarming aspect of this "entrepreneurial" style of crime is the intricate manner in which drugs and terrorism may be intermingled. Not only is the proliferation of illegal drugs perceived as a danger, but also the proceeds from drugs are among the sources for funding for other criminal activities, including terrorism. Within the context of current world events, narco-terrorism is difficult to define. Nevertheless, DEA defines a narco-terrorist organization as "an organized group that is complicit in the activities of drug trafficking in order to further, or fund, premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets with the intention to influence(that is, influence a government or group of people)." Drug trafficking has always been a profitable means for criminal organizations to further or fund their activities. The complicity of terrorist groups in drug trafficking varies from group to group and region to region. In the broadest sense, some terrorist groups may be involved in all aspects of the drug trade, from cultivation, production, transportation, and wholesale distribution to money laundering. These groups may also provide security for drug traffickers transporting their product through territory controlled by terrorist organizations or their supporters. Finally, in some cases, terrorist groups or their supporters may require a "tax" to be paid on illicit products, or passage through controlled territory. No matter which form it takes, or the level of involvement in drug trafficking, many terrorist groups are using drug money to fund their activities and perpetrate violence against governments and people around the world. When looking at the connection between drugs and violence, it is important to differentiate between drug-related violence and narco-terrorism. By definition, terrorism is premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets. With drug-related violence, we see financially motivated violence perpetrated against those who interfere with or cross the path of a drug trafficking organization. While we see drug-related violence on a daily basis on the streets of major cities, narco-terrorism is, in many cases, less visible. Any region, in which illegal drugs are cultivated, transported, distributed, or consumed, is susceptible to narco-terrorism. Throughout the world, insurgent groups, revolutionary groups, and ideological or spiritual groups, who use violence to promote their political mission may use drug proceeds to fund acts of terror in furtherance of their ideology. Leadership, cultural, political, and economic change may affect the ideology or mission of a group. Internal divisions and splinter groups may result, each seeking to pursue their goals via different avenues, be they legitimate political activity, perpetuation of violence, or criminal activity, such as drug trafficking.
