CHHS 225 - Drugs, Society and Policy
Introduces students to the social, cultural, economic, and health aspects of drug use and abuse. We will discuss the influences drugs have on art, music, philosophy and social movements, and explore various perspectives on the use of psychoactive substances (both legal and illegal). Patterns of use among traditional societies and in modern settings will be reviewed especially as they relate to a variety of approaches (criminalization vs. human rights) to drug treatment and drug policy.
