Global Illicit Drug Trends, 2002

This report by the U.N. Office for Drug Control & Crime Prevention is based on data obtained primarily from the annual reports questionnaire sent by Governments to the U.N. Drug Control Program in 2001, supplemented by other sources. The main body of this report presents Estimates of Illicit Drug Production, Trafficking & Consumption. These statistics are supplemented by a section on Analysis, which focuses on different themes each year. Today, international opiate markets continue to be in a state of flux, a result of the drastic reduction in Afghanistan's illicit opium production in 2001, & the resumption of production this year. This report thus continues the analysis of illicit opiate markets in a chapter on The Impact of Changes in Afghanistan.Costa, Antonio Maria is the author of 'Global Illicit Drug Trends, 2002' with ISBN 9780756732523 and ISBN 0756732522.
