In sum, much of the growing literature regarding arguments in favor of the depenalization, decriminalization, or legalization of drugs revolves around public-health, economic, and moral arguments. The intent here is to analyze the negative impact on security—international, bilateral, and domestic—that comes about as a consequence of attempting to deem illegal the consumption of certain substances.
