Narcoculture in Mexico is a subculture that has grown as a result of the strong presence of the various drug cartels throughout Mexico. In the same way that other subcultures around the world that are related to crime and drug use (for example the Scottish neds〔http://www.theguardian.com/society/2005/oct/20/penal.crime〕〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/3452275.stm〕 and European hooligans,〔http://munchies.vice.com/articles/what-ive-learned-from-driving-around-drunk-tourists-all-day〕〔https://books.google.com/books?id=85mxAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA51&lpg=PA51&source=bl&ots=ySrEKlmYt8&sig=6rAQ8aTfWiVXhixckUigN_SzV2Q&hl=es&sa=X&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAmoVChMIuPag0pjmyAIVVeRjCh3OhgX3#v=onepage&q&f=false〕〔http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/bundesliga-german-football-hooligans-use-crystal-meth-fuel-violence-1485073〕 or the American street-gangstas and outlaw bikers),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='Narco Cultura:' How Mexican 'Gangsta Rap' Glorifies Drug Lords )〕 Mexican narco culture has developed its own form of dress, music, literature, film, religious beliefs and practices and language (slang) that has helped it become a part of the mainstream fashion in some areas of the country, mainly among lower-class, uneducated youth.〔Canalestrellatv.

Web 26 May 2013.〕 Narco culture is dynamic in that there are various regional differences within Mexico and even those who participate in it. ==Origin== The origins of narco culture, like drug trafficking, had humble beginnings in Mexico. Narco culture emerged from the practice of drug trafficking in the highlands of Badiraguato, Sinaloa. It is in the sierra or countryside where an identity of drug trafficking was created and then consolidated once it crossed into the urban sphere. Narcoculture has been defined as a code of conduct and lifestyle for those that participate in the "narco world."〔 Drug trafficking in Mexico has been considered by many scholars, like Luis Astorga, to have originated with the Chinese immigration to Sinaloa. It is said that the Chinese immigrants brought poppy seeds with them when they arrived in Mexico to work in the railroads and mines. Luis Astorga and Jorge Alan Sanchez Godoy explain that there is no evidence that would suggest that cannabis or opium were consumed in Mexico prior to the arrival of the Spanish and the Chinese. Although indigenous communities in Mexico consumed hallucinogenic in their religious practices it was not until the arrival of the Spanish that cannabis was introduced to Mexico. Sanchez Godoy explains that after cannabis was brought to Mexico, it was used for medical purposes and poppy plants were used for decoration and served as inspiration for several Mexican corridos or ballads. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Narcoculture in Mexico」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
