Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The International Narcotics Control Board is charged with monitoring the implementation of the three United Nations Conventions and of alerting member states and the international community to weaknesses in the system. There is growing discontent with the unbalanced nature of its contribution to the sensitive debates surrounding the issue of illegal drug markets and how best to respond to them. Critics have pointed out that the Board has moved away from its intended mandate as the 'watchdog' of the conventions to become more of a 'guardian' of the purity of the conventions, and is challenging any policy or activity that does not correspond with what it perceives as the original vision of the control system.
