Meanwhile the drug industry in Australia grows bigger and richer every year, and as a result our rates of addiction, crime and death continue to rise.
Drugs and Democracy examines Australia's unsuccessful attempts to control the illicit drug industry, and discusses how—within the confines of our liberal democratic values and culture—we could improve our strategies.
