Lies, Damned Lies, and Drug War Statistics, Second Edition

  • Publisher: SUNY Press

Revised and updated edition that analyses how the Office of National Drug Control Policy employs statistics to misleadingly claim the War on Drugs is a success. First published in 2007, Lies, Damned Lies, and Drug War Statistics critically analyzed claims made by the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), the White House agency of accountability in the nation’s drug war since 1989, as found in the six editions of the annual National Drug Control Strategy between 2000 and 2005. In this revised and updated second edition of their critically acclaimed work, Matthew B. Robinson and Renee G. Scherlen examine seven more recent editions (2006–2012) to once again determine if ONDCP accura...

The Narcotech Revolution

The easy profits from pleasure, addiction and misery may soon end. The global illegal drugs, tobacco and alcohol industries are ripe to be radically disrupted by the Internet and the microchip. Narcotech is the simple concept that consumer-centric IT can vastly improve on the unsatisfactory situation of today. Data-empowered citizens can transform their own health, whilst reducing the power of crime. There is neutral ground to be found in the culture war between prohibitionists and liberalisers. Change won’t be immediate, even or universal, but the prospective benefits are enormous. Lives saved and extended, new jobs and services created, civil liberties improved, black markets shrunk, taxes collected, environments respected. These are just a taster of what is possible.

America's Longest War

America's war on drugs. It makes headlines, tops political agendas and provokes powerful emotions. But is it really worth it? That’s the question posed by Steven Duke and Albert Gross in this groundbreaking book. They argue that America’s biggest victories in the war on drugs are the erosion of our constitutional rights, the waste of billions of dollars and an overwhelmed court system. After careful research and thought, they make a strong case for the legalization of drugs. It’s a radical idea, but has its time come?

Drug War Politics

Why have our drug wars failed and how might we turn things around? Ask the authors of this hardhitting exposè of U.S. efforts to fight drug trafficking and abuse. In a bold analysis of a century's worth of policy failure, Drug War Politics turns on its head many familiar bromides about drug politics. It demonstrates how, instead of learning from our failures, we duplicate and reinforce them in the same flawed policies. The authors examine the "politics of denial" that has led to this catastrophic predicament and propose a basis for a realistic and desperately needed solution. Domestic and foreign drug wars have consistently fallen short because they are based on a flawed model of force and ...
