Description

Illegal drug use among criminal offenders in the United States is rising at a high rate. As communities face challenges due to a lack of effective drug control programs, understanding the connection between drug use and the criminal justice system becomes essential. This volume from the Drugs, Health, and Social Policy series addresses these pressing issues. The authors examine the history, development, and current status of drug control programs. By looking at how these programs impact the criminal justice system, the text provides a detailed look at current trends. It specifically addresses observations from urban studies suggesting that the offender population is increasingly filled by cocaine users, a substance linked with violent behavior. This book serves as a significant contribution to the study of drug control and its legal implications. It is an important resource for those studying the intersection of public health, social policy, and the legal system.
