Reviews

This meticulously researched book provides a timely analysis of the repressive war on drugs in Tanzania--a state known for its supportive drug harm reduction approach turning against the people it was supposed to protect. Degenstein provides a unique bottom-up view of drug prohibition in Africa and shows the devastating effects of this policy on drug users in Dar es Salaam. This is an essential reading for those interested in African politics and global drug policy.--Gernot Klantschnig, University of Bristol
