Résumé :
Amphetamine Type Stimulants (ATS) are proving to be a genuine growth market in the drugs industry as well as for drug control bureaucracies. But what do we really know about the global synthetic drug market? In 2003, the UNODC tried to put together a global overview of that market. The first results were published in its 2003 Global Illicit Drug Trends and in its Ecstasy and Amphetamines Global Survey 2003. The latest figures were made available in UNODCs World Drug Report 2004. In this issue of Crime and Globalisation, we will take a close look at the figures, with a special focus on a specific part of the global ATS market: the global ecstasy market. This briefing will not look into the perceived danger of ecstasy use. Opinions differ on the health consequences, and on the effectiveness of its prohibition. (Extrait du document)
