Book excerpt: Examines "the domestic commercial cultivation and trafficking in high grade marihuana. Unfortunately, many people consider this to be a benign sort of problem--just a few good old boys raising a little pot, sort of like those romantic old bootleggers of the Prohibition days. This lax attitude has caused us to lose any early advantage which we might have gained, because the good old boys commercialized. It is now big business. Time magazine says marihuana is America's fourth largest cash crop, right behind corn, soybeans, and wheat. Our national forests and parks are plagued by illegal marihuana operations; campers and hikers are being routed at gunpoint by these criminals. Plots are often guarded by lethal booby traps. Our forest rangers are threatened in their work. The Drug Enforcement Administration candidly admits that the scope of the problem has caught them unprepared. For example, quoting from DEA's 1982 Domestic Marihuana Eradication/Suppression Program Final Report, they say: One can compare the 1,653 metric tons of domestic marihuana eradicated in 1982 with the top estimate of domestic marihuana production for 1981, i.e., 1,200 metric tons. It can be seen that in 1982, 38 percent more domestic marihuana was eradicated than was previously believed to exist"--Pages 1/2.

This book was released on 1982-01-01 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defenders of marijuana use may seize on the ambiguity or absence of evidence for such damage and ignore any other effects on education or safety; those opposed to marijuana use may emphasize the possibility of chronic disease that is suggested by some laboratory findings and ignore the social, political, and economic costs of fighting a well-established custom. The Committee wishes to make clear what it regards as the limits of this report for the selection of policy alteratives. Scientific judgment can estimate the prevalence of different kinds of use, risks to health, economic costs, and the like under current policies and can try to project such estimates for new policies. It can come to some conclusions based on those estimates. But selection of an alternative is always a value-governed choice, which can ultimately be made only by the political process.

Download or read book Handbook of Research on the Illicit Drug Traffic written by F. LaMond Tullis and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1991-09-30 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on a highly controversial and fiercely debated subject, this survey tracks the social and economic consequences of the production, trafficking, and consumption of cocaine, heroin, and cannabis. From a growing body of literature, LaMond Tullis has extracted the most salient economic, social, and political themes currently under discussion in both scholarly publications and in the responsible press. The two-part volume consisting of a lengthy review of relevant literature and an annotated bibliography helps its users understand the major issues: Can and should consumption be curtailed, supplies suppressed, and traffickers eliminated? Can the unintended economic, social, and political consequences of curtailing, suppressing, and eliminating somehow be mitigated? Should these drugs be legalized? Would legalization produce its own array of unintended and largely unacceptable consequences? Although tentative answers to these questions abound, this excellent resource is testimony to the fact that there is still little agreement on how to deal with these powerful substances and the problems they generate. Tullis's compilation presents the best overview of this complex subject to date. The first half of this two-part reference consists of a survey of the published literature on the production and consumption of the three illicit drugs. Chapters are devoted to the global patterns of production and consumption of cocaine, heroin, and cannabis, to the consequences, both positive and negative, of drug consumption and production, and to the policy measures that have been adopted (or are under consideration) in both consuming and producing countries. These chapters will be of interest to those wishing to obtain an overall view of the subject and to specialists seeking a guide to the literature outside their particular area of knowledge. The second half of the book contains an annotated bibliography of about 2,000 items covering works published in English--plus a few in Spanish--as books, articles, or press reports. This section will be invaluable to researchers working on the frontiers of the subject and to general readers who wish to pursue particular topics in greater depth. The volume should be at the fingertips of policy makers, legislators, law enforcement officials, judges, and social workers, as well as students and teachers.
