DRUG PROHIBITION & THE CONSCIENCE OF NATIONS, an anthology of current writings on the drug dilemma, examines & dismantles the drug-related fallacies espoused by politicians & intellectuals around the world. Beginning with the words of the nation's two top anti-drug officials, President Bush & former Drug Czar William Bennett, the volume goes on to detail other arguments in the words of their proponents. Impartially & candidly, CONSCIENCE discusses the domestic failures of the current drug war while shedding light on the often unheard successes of innovative & humanistic drug policies. From the United States to Holland, Great Britain & Australia, the editors provide compelling arguments for moving away from our draconian policies toward more rational, humane & cost-effective policies. CONSCIENCE boldly addresses key issues in the drug debate including: the erosion of our civil liberties, AIDS & AIDS prevention strategies, women & crack, crack babies, medical uses of marijuana, children & forced drug treatment, domestic & international militarization, police corruption, & winding down the war on drugs.
