| Title | Explaining the institutional persistence and change possibilities of the global drug regime |
| Summary | It is difficult to find an international policy framework that has a weaker scientific rationale as the global drug regime. This has got to the point of locating the major source of social harm in the policy itself. However, it has shown a strong resistance to change. The main goal of this thesis is to explain the determinants of this persistency and assess its possibilities of change. For this purpose, this research resorts to the different existing theoretical approaches that provide routes to explaining institutional continuity and change. A neo-Gramscian perspective is suggested as a possible form of overcoming the limitations of the former approaches. |
