Abstract
This article assesses the American effort to control and eradicate substance abuse and drug trafficking. Five drug control strategies-foreign crop eradication, border interdiction, deterrence, treatment, and prevention-are evaluated. In each area, the basic programs and their effectiveness are described. The authors conclude that U.S. policy is misdirected, dominated by long-standing and insupportable beliefs about the effectiveness of supply-side interventions such as eradication and interdiction.
