Summary

This book investigates the social construction of the processes of marijuana criminalization and marijuana medicalization, from 1906 to 2004 in American. Using a Foucaultian problem based approach to marshal a qualitatively general historical investigation, the manuscript scrutinizes the changing horizons of both processes.
