The Politics of Narcotic Drugs brings together leading experts
on the drugs trade to provide an accessible yet detailed analysis
of the multiple challenges that the contemporary trade in narcotic
drugs and its prohibition pose, from the local to the international
community.
Through the use of country and regional case studies that
include Afghanistan, Mexico, Colombia and the Middle East, the
drivers of the drugs trade and the security and development
dilemmas created by the prohibition of narcotic substances are
explored. Contributions that assess the international drug control
regime, British anti-drug enforcement organizations,
'narcoterrorism' and options for drug policy reform engage readers
in current debates and the narrative frameworks that shape
discussion of the drugs issue. The book is an invaluable guide to
the dynamic and far-reaching issue of narcotic drugs and the impact
of their prohibition on our countries and communities.
The chapters are followed by an A-Z glossary of key terms,
issues and organizations, and a section of maps and statistics.
