Abstract
''The drug war as a moral call to arms has always lacked resonance in
Europe. Expectations about what drug policy can do are lower than in t
he United States; the possibility of victory over drugs-the eliminatio
n of drug abuse-is seldom raised, even rhetorically. Nor is drug polic
y conflated with military goals and security... In Europe, drug contro
l remains a civilian affair.''
