Colombian government distributes CCU professor’s book

The Government of Colombia has selected James D. Henderson’s recent book, "Victim of Globalization: How the Illegal Drug Trade Destroyed Colombia’s Peace," published last year in Bogotá in its Spanish language edition, for distribution throughout the country.

Colombia’s Culture Ministry recently purchased 1,500 copies of the work for placement in neighborhood, high school and university libraries within the country through a program called Reading is My Story 2013.

Henderson, a member of the Department of Politics and Geography at Coastal Carolina University, specializes in modern Colombian history and has published several scholarly works on the Andean nation.
