He shows how the efforts of merchants and colonial planters expanded world supply, drove down prices, and drew millions of less affluent purchasers into the market, effectively democratizing drug consumption. He also shows how Europeans used alcohol as an inducement for native peoples to trade their furs, sell captives into slavery, and negotiate away their lands, and how monarchs taxed drugs to finance their wars and expanding empires. Forces of habit explains why such profitable exploitation has increasingly given way, over the last hundred years, to policies of restriction and prohibition--and how economic and cultural considerations have shaped those policies to determine which drugs are readily accessible, which strictly medicinal, and which forbidden altogether. 530 $a Also issued online. 650 0 $a Substance abuse $x History. 650 0 $a Psychotropic drugs $x History. 650 0 $a Substance abuse $x Economic aspects. 650 0 $a Substance abuse $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Substance abuse $x Prevention. 650 12 $a Substance-Related Disorders $x history. 650 22 $a Psychotropic Drugs $x history. 650 22 $a Substance-Related Disorders $x economics. 650 22 $a Substance-Related Disorders $x prevention & control. 650 6 $a Polytoxicomanie $x Histoire. 650 6 $a Psychotropes $x Histoire. 650 6 $a Polytoxicomanie $x Aspect eÌconomique. 650 6 $a Polytoxicomanie $x Aspect social. 650 6 $a Polytoxicomanie $x PreÌvention. 650 17 $a Drugsverslaving. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Drugsgebruik. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Sociale aspecten. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Economische aspecten. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Preventie. $2 gtt 776 08 $i Online version: $a Courtwright, David T., 1952- $t Forces of habit. $d Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, 2001 $w (OCoLC)606509484 941 $a 24 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305023119.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214031718.0 952 $l HYAX325 $d 20201013044155.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200924024854.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528022708.0 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926080552.0 952 $l 58SX745 $d 20180623013333.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20180523020237.0 952 $l URAX314 $d 20170609030740.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160820103016.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20140415013629.0 952 $l N5UX522 $d 20100503135127.0 952 $l ACPD686 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OMAX631 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OSAX771 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OUAX845 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l PTAX572 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UDAX314 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UTAX115 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UTAX314 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l W7AX771 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E1508DBA2AFD11DE88878907A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b LUIInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
