Résumé : |
ENGLISH :
Much of the activity surrounding drug-taking and drug abuse has a non-crime history in police classificatory terms. It has often been related to illness and weakness and linked to culturally 'feminine' qualities based on women's supposedly inherent irrationality and emotionalism. It should therefore come as no surprise to find that the police have consistently been uncomfortable when dealing with the ambiguous effects of drug abuse and addiction, for the connotations of illness and personal failure have meant that it has not always been easy to cast such dealings into the required framework of combative warfare directed against a common (male) enemy.
