Globalisation, cultural change and the modern drug epidemics
This paper focuses on the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, one of the localities in the world where the process of globalisation is most advanced, in order to examine the relationship between globalisation and the risk of illicit drug problems.

In contrast, this article focuses on a rather neglected aspect of quasi-government: the role of semi-private bodies and how they emerge and develop. By focusing on the emergence, development and persistence of the self-regulatory system of advertising control, a number of important insights for quasi-government, pol…
