Résumé :
This article will try to clearly show that though the basic principles of the Dutch drug policy are upheld, there is a shift from a more libertarian, almost laissez faire, policy to a somewhat more restrictive approach that is more in accordance with foreign drug policies. Two recent advisory committees have guided the Dutch government to conclude that the way the Netherlands has dealt with cannabis and coffee shops needs to be changed.
