The relationship between drugs, society's response to drugs, and crime is far more complex than the "drugs cause crime" narrative offered by most proponents of the "war on drugs." Gaines (California State U. at San Bernardino) and Kraska (Eastern Kentucky U.) offer this reader as a window into the theoretical complexity of thinking about such relationships from criminological and sociological perspectives. Twenty contributions, organized in six sections, look at the sources and markets for drugs, explore the extent to which drug laws may exacerbate crime, look at discriminatory enforcement of drug laws, and debate policies of drug education.
