About this product
Product Information
The Drug Wars in America, 1940-1973 argues that the US government has clung to its militant drug war, despite its obvious failures, because effective control of illicit traffic and consumption were never the critical factors motivating its adoption in the first place. Instead, Kathleen J. Frydl shows that the shift from regulating illicit drugs through taxes and tariffs to criminalizing the drug trade developed from, and was marked by, other dilemmas of governance in an age of vastly expanding state power. Most believe the 'drug war' was inaugurated by President Richard Nixon's declaration of a war on drugs in 1971, but in fact his announcement heralded changes that had taken place in the two decades prior. Frydl examines this critical interval of time between regulation and prohibition, demonstrating that the war on drugs advanced certain state agendas, such as policing inner cities or exercising power abroad.

Great purchase for modest cost! Small and light "damaged" stamp to verso of title page (as described) but I can see nothing amiss with this new unused book other than some insignificant rubbing to laminated boards. Ordered Friday, properly packed, delivered on Sunday by tracked R.Mail. Top-class in every respect; many thanks indeed!

All fine! I asked for a specific book among a group of identical ones and the seller was kind enough to agree with my request. The shipment was fast and the book was very securely packaged with 2 soft envelopes inside a cardboard box. Highly recommended seller +++++
