Zero Dark Thirty
Kathryn Bigelow's Zero Dark Thirty is an exercise in instant history and hot-after-the-fact mythmaking, a dramatization of the events leading up to the killing of Osama bin Laden by U.S. Navy Seals (Sea-Air-Land Teams) in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on May 2, 2011. Based on firsthand accounts, it is history and myth, mythic history, and historical myth. But it is also frankly a theatrical film and does not pretend to be a documentary. The look of docum…

A questionnaire was developed in English and translated into Shona. Three roun…

Harm reduction ethics
An evaluation of harm reduction interventions targeting injecting drug users in Sverdlovsk Oblast, Russia
The application of ethnography, with reference to harm reduction in Sverdlovsk Russia
Reflections on Participant Observation in Drugs Research
Participant observation needs to be reinstated in drugs research. An excerpt from a 13 year-old field diary is used to illustrate its potential to augment and inform key issues in drugs research

Involvement of community pharmacists in the care of drug misusers
An ethnography of risk management amongst illicit drug injectors and its implications for the development of community-based interventions
Qualitative research which describes the social behaviour of illicit drug users has a key role to play in refining community- based interventions. Such research has been used for many years in drugs research, but during the AIDS epoch its practical application has been most fully realised. Data are presented to illustrate the way in which qualitative research can inform the development of outreach initiatives targeted towards illicit drug injecto…
