Following the case of the disappearance of the 43 Ayotzinapa students, the Pandora’s Box was opened: pits filled with bodies, corruption, impunity and institutional weakness of a state where politicians, police and authorities at all three government levels have been infiltrated by the organized crime. In Mexico, corruption and drug trafficking are common and the economic reforms are not enough if they do not go together with an effective program of combating corruption and the society is not the main beneficiary of the reforms.This article will explain the background of the Ayotzinapa case, the characteristics of the Mexican political system that allow cases like Ayotzinapa, the consequences of the fight against organized crime launched by ex-President Felipe Calderon, the behavior of a sleeping civil society tired of the reduced economic results and where the state does not have the monopoly of the authority and does not guarantee security.

In June 2014, the border between Mexico and the United States (US) witnessed the arrival of more than 50,000 unaccompanied children from Central America trying to get to the US in order to join their parents, escape from different types of abuse and violence, or find new opportunities. The growing numer of children in the border has developed a humanitarian crisis involving many actors, such as the children, the American government, the US border state governments, the Mexican government, the governments of Central America and many NGOs concerned by the problematic situation. The current paper seeks to analyze the origin and development of the crisis, as well as its consequences, and the actions that the actors mentioned above have taken, or not.
