Tackling serious organised crime drug harms

Abstract

In a response to Caulkins' and Reuter's paper in this edition, David Bolt accepts that arresting and imprisoning criminals is ‘no longer seen as the end‐game’. He is supportive of a harm‐reduction approach, but raises practical issues about its implementation. In particular, he highlights the difficulties of defining and measuring harm.
