Chapter 1. Introduction: A Case for a Critical Biopolitical Analysis of the Global Drug Control -- Chapter 2. Drug Control Dispositif, State of Exception and Democracy -- Chapter 3. Which Knowledge Deserves to Be Named Knowledge: The Place for Science and Evidence in Drug Policy -- Chapter 4. Migrants, Substances, and Borders: The Case of the Spanish Southern Border -- Chapter 5. Conclusion.

This book is a critical analysis tracing the operation of biopolitical mode of power in the global field of drug control. Through a series of theoretically framed investigations that relate current drug control policies to the broader frame of 'vital politics', it attends to the relationship of drug control, state of exception and democracy, exploring how pressures of resurgent sovereignty and neoliberal governmentality imprint on drug policy. Then, it turns attention to the relationship of power and knowledge, with a particular focus on the 'evidence-based' approaches that may at times sustain rather than challenge prohibitionist drug control policies. Finally, it looks at how the global drug control dispositif shapes life on one of Europe's (internal) peripheries. These investigations are intended to illuminate the operation of the drug control dispositif and its far reaching (bio-)political effects in order to expand the space for devising more competent and compassionate public policies. Ondrej Ditrych is Senior Researcher at the Institute of International Relations Prague. In his current research, inspired by continental philosophy, he explores revolution and political violence in global politics, ethnopolitics and geopolitics in Europe and Postsoviet space, and global risks. Constanza Sánchez Aviles is Law, Policy and Human Rights Director at the International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research and Service (ICEERS) and Research Associate at the Global Drug Policy Observatory (UK) Her main areas of research and work are national and international drug policies, the political economy of illicit drugs and the intersection between drug control, human rights and social justice.
