摘要
From the official report of narco-war-related casualties in Mexico from December 2006 to September 2011, we show that the inter-event time distribution (calculated for a range of minimum sizes) approximately obeys simple scaling laws similar to violent conflicts in Iraq (2003-2005), Afghanistan (2008-2010) and Northern Ireland (1969-2001). Furthermore, normalizing deaths by population municipalities (the smallest Mexican political entities) yields even better fitting results.
