Bulletin on Narcotics

The present issue of the Bulletin on Narcotics contains a historical review of the international drug control system, one of the oldest consensus-based multilateral systems in existence.

With this as a starting point, the article outlines the development of international mechanisms to tackle issues related to illicit drugs.
