International Drug Control & Trafficking Issues

Revenue from the illegal drug industry provides international drug trafficking organisations with the resources to evade and compete with law enforcement officials; penetrate legitimate economic structures through money laundering; and, in some instances, challenge the authority of national governments.

It describes major international counter-narcotics initiatives and evaluates the broad array of U.S. drug control policy tools currently in use. See more
