Les addictions se jouent des limites habituelles des disciplines scientifiques. Ce livre propose de les considérer comme des constructions narratives. Mais quels en sont les auteurs et les narrateurs ? Les lecteurs, les auditeurs et les spectateurs ? S’agit-il des patients ou des professionnels ? À partir d’une recherche menée avec des patients toxicomanes, ce livre souligne leur besoin d’être secourus par la littérature, c’est-à-dire par la fiction, l’Histoire, mais aussi par la littérature spécialisée, pour construire leurs identités et organiser leurs expériences temporelles. Cette appropriation, nécessaire pour se connaître soi-même, doit rester critique. L’équilibre est fragile entre des dispositifs de soins illisibles, empêchant toute configuration de la souffrance, et d’autres trop lisibles, fabriquant des patients uniformes et indifférenciés. Pour éviter l’émergence d’une addictologie désubjectivante, ce livre invite les étudiants et les professionnels à prendre en compte le cercle de la mimèsis entre les histoires des patients et les modèles théoriques et cliniques.

This brief summarizes the results of a two-year, international research project covering drug addiction treatment versus punishment in Austria, Poland, and Spain. It features: -An analysis of the national drug-related legislation and its application in these countries - An evaluation of drug laws and policies by both the law enforcement and drug treatment practitioners -An evaluation of drug-addicted offenders undergoing drug treatment versus punishment and their outcomes The basic findings of the project can be summarized as follows: drug addiction and drug-related criminal behavior should be treated as a psychiatric disorder and a chronic disease. The study supports the application of a treatment-oriented approach to drug-related delinquency. As this brief demonstrates, one challenge to an adequate treatment of drug addicted offenders is a lack of cooperation between the judicial and the medical sector, and an inconsistent application of policies. By comparing the legislation and application of drug laws in these three European countries, the authors provide insights with implications for other national legal systems.   This brief will be of interest to researchers and policy-makers working with drug involved individuals, from criminology and criminal justice, public health, public policy and international comparative law. .

Of the some sixty thousand vacant properties in Philadelphia, half of them are abandoned row houses. Taken as a whole, these derelict homes symbolize the city's plight in the wake of industrial decline. But a closer look reveals a remarkable new phenomenon-street-level entrepreneurs repurposing hundreds of these empty houses as facilities for recovering addicts and alcoholics. How It Works is a compelling study of this recovery house movement and its place in the new urban order wrought by welfare reform. To find out what life is like in these recovery houses,
