Prohibition of drugs: How far? Why?
Fr/Nl
Flagey - Studio 1
What is the efficiency of current policies regarding drugs? What is their underlying logic? A symbolic prohibition within our democracies, the illegality of drugs raises numerous questions as regards the effects that it induces: criminalisation of users, aggravation of consumption conditions, hindrance of prevention and the impossibility of controlling products. Between citizen accountability and the real or imaginary dangers, we use through the issue of drugs to examine the logic of prohibition more globally.
