Abstract

 The economic aspects of addiction are not restricted to consumer behavior, production mechanisms and motivations, drug trafficking and distribution, and the role of price and income; rather these aspects should mainly deal with the structure of political economy. At the beginning, the topic was treated in general articles and sometimes in reductionist explanatory studies based on neo-classical hypothetical models, and received limited distribution. Along with it, radical economists critically discussed the different politico-economic and socio-economic aspects of addiction. And today various types of critical and systemic studies and economic researches dealing with addiction are being carried out. The present article deals systematically with the structures of political economy and social economy related to drug trafficking and addiction in general, and assumes that there exist strong motivations for production and consumption. Ruling out individual and exceptional cases,these motivations are rooted in factors which themselves contribute to perpetuation ofthe abnormal social structure and encourage drug abuse. The increase of drug addiction is induced by confusions resulting from complications in political economy, such as poverty, unemployment, deprivation, and existence of a strong drug trafficking network, which is seriously related to political management. But basic solutions are possible only after the major preventive factor is eliminated and structures inducing the situation are altered. However, despite the persistence of the basic structures which generate the abnormalities, serious and effective control can be exercised and social costs can be immensely reduced through adoption of radical approaches.
