The Methamphetamine Industry in America

Transnational Cartels and Local Entrepreneurs

Beschreibung

Describes the reality that the methamphetamine industry is a social phenomenon connecting local, national, and international communities and markets. This book details the results of a three-stage study, in which police agencies across the US were surveyed and their responses used to identify likely areas of study. The authors then visited these areas to observe and interview participants, from users and dealers to law enforcement officers and clinical treatment workers.
