1. '''Why is drug policy a topic - or better: why should it be?'''  
(Here comes this Scheerer guy, always talking about drugs and drug policy, as if he can't get enough of it. Maybe he is a user. Maybe he is an addict. Maybe he is addicted to talking about drugs like other people are addicted to the substances themselves.)
Drug policy has been one of the most significant driving forces of incarceration in the whole world. It has been the driving force in the retantion and in the re-introduction of the death penalty in the world. It has been a driving force in the infringement of human rights - from procedural guarantees to extrajudicial killings - over the last few decades. It has been instrumental in the US influencing domestic policy in Latin America and other areas of the world, and it has been a leading factor in the destroying communities through the militarization of crime control and in in the process that we are witnessing right now and that I would like to call the process of de-civilization or even the re-barbarization of the world. What do I mean by that? I mean the spread of torture and extrajudicial killings, of government-condoned cruelty. 
 
Does drug policy work? Is it effective? Is it efficient?
