Drugs and crime: an overview Drugs and crime: theoretical assumptions Sentencing drug offenders Coercive treatment and mandatory drug testing The drug treatment and testing order and drug courts Trafficking and laundering Policing drug markets Informers and corruption Women, drugs and crime Suggestions for the way forward "A high proportion of crimes committed in Britain are drugs-related, with many offenders reporting drug use prior to the commission of their offence. However, the direct link between drug taking and crime is often less clear than is supposed if only because many of those offenders would have committed offences anyway, and these offences need to be separated from those that are directly caused by drugs. Attempts to address many of these and related issues have been bedevilled by misunderstanding and a lack of consensus on the nature of the relationship between drugs and crime." "This book is a major contribution to this debate, and provides an authoritative and much-needed overview of the range of issues associated with drugs-related crime." "This updated and expanded new edition builds upon the strengths of the first edition, extends its coverage to Scotland and Ireland, and includes a wholly new chapter on theoretical debates surrounding the drugs and crime issue."--Jacket Criminalité crime Drogues et criminalité Grande-Bretagne Drug abuse Drug abuse and crime Drug abuse and crime Great Britain Drug addiction Great Britain Substance-Related Disorders Toxicomanie et criminalité Grande-Bretagne crimes (events) BK ddc 0 0 ddc 0 0 NORSU-MCII NORSU-MCII CIRC 2024-02-16 31911 0 362.29 B37 2004 NORSU000006530 2024-02-16 c1 2024-02-16 BK 22907 22907
