Description

Explore the complex relationship between psychoactive substances and state authority with this academic publication from Routledge. While cultural norms influence how people view substances, the law ultimately determines their status. This book examines the regulation of various substances, ranging from alcohol and cannabis to heroin and cocaine. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how drug regulation functions within specific political regimes and geographical contexts. The text investigates diverse topics, such as the colonial legacy of cannabis prohibition and its impact on bioprospecting in Africa. It also examines the validity of the narco-state concept and analyzes how countries like Turkey manage drinking regulations during periods of civil unrest. By looking at practices like social drinking and public injecting, this work provides a detailed look at how law, people, and place intersect. It is an essential resource for those studying the social, legal, and political dimensions of drug regulation and its impact on different societies.
