Sumario:This article aims to discuss the representations that predominate in many journalistic and academic articles that address the criminal problem. In this regard, we attempt to account for the chaos, uncertainty and the constantly improvised and abrupt maneuvers that often characterize the actions of the so-called organized crime, especially when its activity is established around the illegal drug market. For this purpose, we focus on the situation of the city of Rosario to highlight some general aspects of the structuring process of criminal groups around the drug market, the commercial logics that run through it, the great variety of actors involved and how they make use of violence.
