Résumé :
The special segment of the current issue takes a closer look at new psychoactive substances (NPS) - substances which are not controlled under the international drug conventions but which have emerged in all regions of the world and may pose a risk to public health. Broad global concern over NPS led to the adoption of resolution 55/1 entitled "Promoting international cooperation in responding to the challenges posed by new psychoactive substances", at the 55th session of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, the main United Nations drug policy-making body. The segment provides an overview on the various NPS available on illicit ATS markets and a critical assessment of some of the challenges posed by NPS to the international community.
