Drugs: Prevalence, Policy & Practice

Course Description:
Illicit drug use is a key contemporary concern both for our country and globally. Opinions about the dangers of illicit drug use vary as widely as the drugs which are used - but few are in doubt that the number of people using drugs has increased hugely over the last twenty years and that it is therefore an issue that requires detailed examination. Drugs are also of course always a political ‘hot potato’ and the laws and policies related to illicit drug use are never without controversy. This course is designed to provide students with a critical understanding of contemporary drug misuse and its impact; treatment and prevention services; and related international and national laws and policies.
