Abstract

El propósito de este artículo es describir y analizar el mercado de la marihuana en Estados Unidos y en México desde el punto de vista microeconómico para señalar algunos elementos que pudieran permitir legalizar, despenalizar, prohibir o gravar indirectamente su consumo. Para tal efecto, se realiza una aproximación a las elasticidades de la demanda de la droga y, a través de un modelo de clústeres, clasificando en dos grupos los datos de acuerdo a su similitud, muestra que la tendencia de la ingesta de marihuana en México (nacional) ha ido en aumento en el país, mientas que en la región norte con drogas ilegales (anfetamínicos y estupefacientes) su incremento es muy pequeño.
