Description

Since President Nixon first used the term, the "War on Drugs" has fundamentally changed how society views criminal justice and drug laws. This book explores how the phrase evokes strong imagery of militarization, punishment, and violence. For 40 years, public debate and mass media have been driven by questions of whether this approach has failed or if it can be won. Debating the Drug War provides a deep look into the social and cultural contours of these heated discussions. By analyzing 30 years of newspaper content, this work examines how race, politics, and media coverage shape our understanding of drug policy. It is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the history and evolution of drug law discourse in the 21st century.
