Publisher's Synopsis
Drug problems present sharp challenges for policing and democracy in the European Union. Harmonization of anti-trafficking measures contrasts with diversity of local policies on drug users. "Open drug scenes" trigger innovative but often volatile responses. This collection presents experiences of drug policy-making at city, regional and higher levels. For the future, beyond 1996, EU "confederal" and "intergovernmental" scenarios have distinct implications for drugs. Finally, international dimensions are explored - drug control through money laundering countermeasures, trade and development policies, security and EU enlargement.
