Human rights violations occurring as a consequence of drug control
and enforcement are a growing concern, and raise questions of
treaty interpretation and of the appropriate balancing of
concomitant obligations within the drug control and human rights
treaty regimes. Tracing the evolution of international drug control
law since 1909, this book explores the tensions between the
regime's self-described humanitarian aspirations and its
suppression of a common human behaviour as a form of 'evil'.
Drawing on domestic, regional and international examples and case
law, it posits the development of a dynamic, human rights-based
interpretative approach to resolve tensions and conflicts between
the regimes in a manner that safeguards human rights. Highlighting
an important and emerging area of human rights inquiry from an
international legal perspective, this book is a key resource for
those working and studying in this field.
