Introduces the legal issues involved with drug use. Students get an overview of American drug laws as they apply to both legal and illegal psychoactive drugs. Students learn about the two sets of drug regulations that exist in the U.S. and examine their resulting regulatory systems, which overlap in some areas but operate independently in others. Discussion considers how these regulations reflect differing definitions and values regarding drugs in our society.
