From the Back Cover

Based on social research conducted in different countries in Europe, the U.S. and Australia, this anthology is the first to provide detailed insights into small-scale drug distribution. A main focus is the phenomenon of 'social supply', i.e. buying illicit drugs from friends, which covers a substantial part of the retail market. For cannabis users, cultivating their own plants is another important source. This volume deals with different social aspects of these non-profit-oriented forms of drug distribution, as well as profit-oriented small-scale dealing. While the illicit drug trade is commonly referred to as a world dominated by ruthless criminals, this book draws a different picture.

Contents

  • Drug sharing and social supply
  • Careers of drug users and small-scale dealers: Drifting in and out of dealing
  • Cannabis cultivation as a way of self-supply
  • Comparative research on small-scale trade and cannabis cultivation in different countries
  • Networks of drug dealers and traffickers

Target Groups

  • Researchers, lecturers and students of criminology and social sciences
  • Law enforcement, social work, drug policy
