5.0 out of 5 stars Leading the Debate! 28 Jun 2010
By William G. Humbert
Transform Drug Policy Foundations 'Blueprint for Regulation' is (as its name suggests) a work by author Steve Rolles that attempts to address how we might transition from the currently punitive prohibitionist model in dealing with illegal drugs to a more sane, humane and workable phased regulatory approach thats puts harm reduction first.

In this sense, its the first really serious work (to my knowledge) that takes look at the nuts-and-bolts of exactly HOW we might go (in real-world practical terms) from the current legal and political framework around regards drugs to a well thought out improved regulatory model where drugs are controlled within the law rather than simply outlawed and uncontrolled. All this, in order to better deal with the often very harmful effects of drugs on individuals and societies across the world in producer, transit and consumer nations alike.

Enough articles, papers, documentaries and books have been devoted to the problems and pitfalls of dugs prohibition - where Blueprint earns its place is in being the springboard to look ahead in how we might arrive at a new regulatory model in practice (part of the answer Rolles argues lies in a sensible phased approach).

Blueprint is full of quite tightly argued policy detail and in this sense is not going to make for the most typical of summer-time beach reading, unless social policy flicks your switches! Notwithstanding, it gets 5 stars from me as its the first of its kind, well argued, fully backed up with the facts and indispensable to those considering the future of the drugs prohibition vs. regulation debate....
