This book was released on 2019 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis serves as an analysis of how California’s current drug laws are failing at mitigating the number of citizens who become drug offenders. All the while the United States (US) continues to face the biggest opioid crisis it has ever seen in its history and our neighbors in Mexico are facing a profound homicide rate far beyond anything in the US. This follows on from the devastating effects that cocaine, especially crack cocaine, had on urban communities in the 1980s and 1990s. Recent ballot measures voted into legislation by the citizens of California for drug reform and their punishments have arguably had greater negative consequences than positive. Despite the positive impact of not using prison as a solution, it has led to more drug offenders on the streets rather than in prison, which has created an increase in property crimes. Heavily populated cities San Francisco and San Diego have witnessed this impact first-hand. The decriminalization of illicit drugs in California was a major reversal in historic government policy for addressing the drug addiction problem, functionally ending mass incarceration for non-violent drug offenders. These non-violent drug offenders were not in jail or prison, but this approach has limited rehabilitation potential to really solve the drug problem. California and the US overall are struggling to find solutions that do not revert to the failed tactic of mass incarceration. Somehow finding solutions that can strengthen the role of the rehabilitative processes and educational incentives may save countless lives in getting people out of the drug culture, as fear of incarceration has now largely been removed. Such Public Health rehabilitation if paired with the current threat assessments and interdiction tactics of federal agencies like the Drug Enforcement Agency and Department of Homeland Security appear to be the most promising solutions for curbing the drug problem within the United States. Removing the drug demand from the US could then have extremely positive impacts on countries like Mexico involved in the supply side of drug trafficking.

Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.

Book excerpt: This dissertation places state lawmaking and local enforcement at the center of its analysis of the U.S. drug wars by exposing California's efforts to reduce the traffic in illicit substances during the first two decades of the postwar era. In contrast with existing work that sees drug enforcement as federally directed, this research reveals that state and local initiatives drove attitudes and action on illegal drugs. The California drug-control experience in the postwar era shows that the drug wars were locally escalated through grassroots campaigns, overzealous law enforcement, and political jockeying to solve the problem of increasing illicit drug use. Beginning just after World War II, law enforcement agencies and the mass media in the greater Los Angeles area encouraged widespread panic over heroin and marijuana smuggled from Mexico. Federal agencies fueled this concern during congressional hearings on organized crime, which connected the "narcotics menace" to the mafia and communism, birthing local crime commissions focused on drugs and juvenile delinquency. Police Chief William H. Parker engineered a brutal narcotics enforcement regime that targeted minority neighborhoods and violated the constitutional rights of drug defendants in defiance of court rulings, suggesting Los Angeles as a western site of massive resistance. Californians interrogated the relationships between federal, state, and local enforcement arms, whose leaders often disagreed and failed to cooperate. Increasingly politicized, drug control became a major issue in the 1962 governor's race, with Republican Richard Nixon pressing for harsh penalties and Democrat Pat Brown seeking to protect the rights of drug defendants and replace prison time with rehab. California's critique of the federal drug-control regime was widely publicized and convinced President John F. Kennedy to reorganize federal agencies tasked with combatting drugs. California exercised an early and deep influence over the course of U.S. drug policy at midcentury by pressing the federal government to combat drug trafficking from Mexico and questioning the methods of longtime drug czar Harry J. Anslinger. This dissertation extends backward the traditional timeline of the modern U.S. drug wars and opens a discussion about the roles played by citizens, local officials, and state governments.
