Absztrakt (kivonat)

The title of my thesis is The impact of Pablo Escobar on the Colombian economy. I chose this because I think through this particular case, we can understand the effects of drug trafficking on a country’s economy.  In the course of my research, countless questions have been raised in me. How he was able to carry out an illegal activity without being caught? What logistics routes did he used to transport the goods into the United States? Did his political aspirations really cause his downfall? However, the most important question I was looking for an answer to, is how did Pablo Escobar’s activity affect the Colombian economy? To answer these, it is essential to examine what happened in Colombia during his lifetime in a historical description. In my thesis I would also like to mention that, in addition to economic influence, Pablo also has an impact on social and political life in Colombia Overall, Pablo Escobar’s activities had different effects on Colombia’s economy. In the short run, the positive effects can be highlighted, while in the long run, this positivity cannot be detected, and even turned into a negative one. The drug trade was a significant source of revenue for the Colombian economy, but the stability of the economy would have been different. Although, the country also had other exports, there was a period when they were pushed into the background and replaced by cocaine. Also, we can be sure that the crime rate, number of homicides would have been much lower, and the country would not have struggled to this day to control this violence.  Colombia has gained a place on the map of drug trafficking itself thanks to Pablo Escobar and the Medellín cartel. Furthermore, people have stigmatised the country that only drug trafficking, corruption and violence characterise the country.
