Description

This authoritative overview of drugs and society today examines: whether a process of `normalization′ of drugs and drug use is under way; the debate over prohibition versus legislation; `drugs′ and `users′ as `other′ or `dangerous′; drugs and dance cultures; drug use among young women; images of `race′ and drugs; medical responses to drugs; policing strategies and controlling drug users; drug control and sport; and the question of prohibition versus liberalization.
