Examining the historical, economic and political context for the
current prohibition of particular drugs, this study investigates
the problem of drug control and provides a systematic analysis of
the development of the international system of regulation. It
identifies the political rationalities that provided the basis of
that system and positions these moral justifications for exercising
power in relation to the practical programmes that put them into
practice. The work not only catalogues the techniques and
strategies employed in the process of governing illicit drugs, it
also notes the failures, unintended consequences and other
difficulties associated with getting such programmes to work. It
will be of key interest to students and scholars of crime and
criminology, law and society, medico-legal studies and health
studies.
