NARCOTIC DRUG CONTROL POLICY IN SWEDEN: THE POST-WAR EXPERIENCE
 ABSTRACT
The publication tells the story of the development of the Swedish policy for the control of narcotic drugs, since the first regulation on the sale of opium and cocaine in 1907. || The book provides a comprehensive historical overview of Swedish attempts to stem illicit drug traffic and to limit drug use and trade to purely medical and scientific purposes, as regulated by the relevant UN Conventions. The Author also pays special attention to model projects in drug control policy, the current debate and the future possibilities for drug control in Sweden, as well as Sweden’s role as an example to the rest of the world. || Includes a chronology of important years in Swedish drug control history and a detailed glossary of relevant terms. ||
