Résumé : | In contemporary societies, psychoactive drugs are surrounded by a policy cluster. A policy cluster is assembled in the orbit around some problem confronting fields of governance, and is composed of various structures, agencies and organisations. In the case of psychoactive drugs, these structures consist of states, international and transnational groups of states, government ministries, bodies of legislation, police and other law enforcement agencies, local governments, political parties, media outlets, voluntary organisations, civil society groups, universities and other institutions conducting research and analysis - the list is not exhaustive. In one sense, the policy cluster secretes its own object: 'drugs', which is its raison d'être, through the set of actions and understandings it brings to bear upon its core problem. The reality of drugs prior to the formation of the policy cluster is not the same object as the reality of drugs post-policy cluster. [Extract] |
