From the Paper:

"In their book "Legalize It? Debating American Drug Policy," authors Trebach and Inciardi debate the issues surrounding legalization of drugs in the US. Both advocate changes to current policies, laws and attitudes about illegal drug abuse and addiction, but present fundamentally opposite opinions on the issue of legalization for what are currently classified as illegal drugs. By examining both of their perspectives and arguments, this paper will provide a suggestion as to the best-case scenario for resolving their divergent solutions and perhaps find a way to bring them together."
