Implementing a gender approach in drug policies: prevention, treatment and criminal justice
Integrating gender into all aspects of drug policy, including the criminal justice system. In its efforts to place human rights at the heart of drug policies, the Pompidou Group has decided to pursue further the work already undertaken towards integrating a gender dimension into drug policy by developing a handbook covering different drug policy areas. It seeks to promote gender sensitivity in drug responses as essential leverage to reduce health inequities and to respect human rights, especially the rights to diversity and dignity for women, men and non-binary people. The publication begins with an overview of epidemiological evidence on gender-based differences in drug use and related cons...

Problemáticas actuales del uso nocivo de alcohol
Al igual que otros problemas de salud pública, los trastornos mentales representan altos costos para el país y repercusiones en los individuos, las familias y la sociedad en su conjunto. Esto se presenta en un contexto cada vez más complejo, caracterizado por una transición epidemiológica y una transición demográfica donde los trastornos asociados con la juventud y la vida adulta mayor son cada vez más prevalentes. De acuerdo con datos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud, en 2016 murieron más de tres millones de personas debido al uso nocivo del etanol, de las cuales más de tres cuartas partes corresponden a hombres. En términos generales se puede afirmar que este tipo de consumo de alcohol se asocia a más del 5 por ciento de la carga mundial de morbilidad.
Derecho al cannabis
El cannabis es la droga ilegal más consumida en el mundo. A pesar de los diversos usos industriales, científicos y medicinales de la planta, su condición psicotrópica la ha mantenido en el centro de las políticas prohibicionistas en muchos países del mundo. Este enfoque, sin embargo, es materia de polémicas cada vez más encendidas.Por un lado, se reconoce cada vez más que la ilegalidad fomenta los mercados negros y los delitos asociados al tráfico. Por otra parte, los argumentos jurídicos más recientes han concluido que proscribir el consumo recreativo de la marihuana atenta contra el derecho al libre desarrollo de la personalidad.A partir de su trabajo como legislador y su relac...
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

The Mosquito Bite Author
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
