Abstract

Resumen: El propósito de la investigación es explicar el funcionamiento y dinámica del criptomercado de drogas. Con ese propósito se desarrolló un modelo de competencia monopolística con externalidades en red basado en los trabajos Belleflamme y Peitz (2010) y Dixit y Stiglitz (1977). La principal predicción del modelo es que las políticas de interdicción en estos mercados tienden a ser contrarrestadas por la entrada de nuevos vendedores, y la resultante apertura de nuevas páginas web en la red oscura. Otro hallazgo es que, debido a la presencia de efectos de externalidad en red en el consumo de drogas online, el endurecimiento de las políticas de interdicción produce un efecto de retroalimentación que lleva a que a un mayor número efectivo de consumidores decida adquirir los dispositivos para acceder a las plataformas de drogas en la web oscura y, así, compre drogas ilegales.
