About this video

About the author

Ethan Nadelmann talks about prohibition and criminalization of drugs in the United States and around the world. He comments on the existence and social acceptance of some common legal drugs through time and explains that prohibition has been a result of cultural and racial conflicts in the United States. As banning drugs has proven not to be the best approach towards this issue, Nadelmann proposes an alternative based on science, economic rationality, consensus and debate that can be the most efficient way to solve this inconvenient and problematic reality.

Ethan Nadelmann

Ethan Nadelmann is the founder and executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance. He takes a public health - rather than a criminal justice - approach to the War on Drugs advocating for the application of harm reduction principles. He taught politics and public affairs at Princeton University, where he formed the Princeton Working Group on the Future of Drug Use and Alternatives to Drug Prohibition. Nadelmann earned a BA, JD and PhD in Political Science from Harvard University, and a master's degree in International Relations from the London School of Economics.
