Abstract The origin of illicit economies has been understood as a consequence of ‘low stateness’ (i.e. low reach of the state). Given the limited stateness in many regions, however, this article seeks to explain how only some sub-national territories have become vulnerable to illegal drug trafficking. To make this case, the representative example of the Alto Huallaga valley, in the Peruvian Amazon, is analysed. This article argues that ineffective development and settlement efforts by the Peruvian state in the Alto Huallaga, rather than the absence of the state, produced socio-ecological conditions in the region, in the late 1970s, that made it more vulnerable to the illegal economy. At the same time as international demand for illegal cocaine was expanding, two conditions resulting from frustrated state development plans came together: an enclave of poor peasants who were not self-sufficient and a natural environment impoverished by soil degradation and intensive deforestation, paradoxically not suitable for any crop except coca.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has made a substantial impact on the historical criminal trend of the world. Using Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) recorded open crime data of the total number of arrests, this article aims to understand how the frequency of selected crime trends has changed during the pandemic in Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh. Time-series forecasting models ARIMA (Auto Regressive Moving Average Model) are used to forecast the expected frequency of arrests in different crime types in 2020 in the absence of the pandemic. Forecasting techniques are applied to estimate six-month-ahead forecasts of the total number of arrests of arms dealing, vehicle theft, and illegal drug trafficking. The actual and predicted numbers of total arrests for vehicle thefts are decreased during pandemic while actual arrests in illegal drug trafficking show a steep upward trend- around 75% more than that of the expected frequencies. Estimated results are used to recognize scopes and suggestions for future research on the relationship between crimes and pandemic.
