In this book I analyse the incongruities and disproportionalities of Brazil's criminal drug policy, established in Law 11.343/06, based on Manichean reasoning, which reduces the complexity of reality to the user-dealer binary. This means that it is not a criminology book, but a critical dogmatics book, structured on the basis of the Constitution. Despite the Manichaeism concealed in our criminalising drug policy, it is not uncommon for users to be imprisoned as if they were drug dealers. What's more, a public health problem like drug use is criminalised, which produces yet another set of socio-economic problems: deprivation of family life, denial of care, labelling (Labeling Approach), the need for financial resources to hire a lawyer, spending family members' time on prison visits in cases where family members don't abandon the prisoner, etc. Considering these and other paradoxes of criminalisation, as well as the constitutional requirement to criminalise any action by way of drug trafficking, I have formulated an alternative proposal.
