Infos

The European Society for Social Drug Research (ESSD) was established in 1990. The principal aim of the ESSD is to promote social science approaches to drug research, with special reference to the situation in Europe. Organising annual conferences and producing an annual book is a core activity of the ESSD. For this year’s book, a number of participants who presented their studies at the 21st annual conference in Dubrovnik, Croatia in September 2010 were invited to submit a chapter. However, this invitation was not restricted to the participants of the conference: other ESSD members were also welcome to contribute. After a first review of outlines by the Editorial Board, submitted papers were peer reviewed by distinguished scholars. This book contains only the chapters that were approved during this process.
