This prevalence rate has not changed substantially in the past decade and there is no indication that it will do so in the next decade. In line with this, many prominent organisations and individuals have acknowledged that the “war on drugs” has failed and are now calling for a rethink on drug-related policy and legal frameworks. With a growing number of jurisdictions across the world heeding this call and introducing legislation to decriminalize or legalize cannabis use, it is essential that any changes to legal frameworks and public health policies are based on the best available scientific evidence.PsychiatryPlant SciencesHILCCAgricultureHILCCEarth & Environmental SciencesHILCCCannabisCannabinoidsAffective disorders anxietyAddictionnormalizationmarijuanalegalizationdrug policypsychosisPsychiatry.Plant SciencesAgricultureEarth & Environmental SciencesMargriet van Laarauth1377107Brown Rhonda F.Hammersley RichardTemple Elizabeth C.PQKBUkMaJRUBOOK9910137209103321Clearing the smokescreen3413673UNINA
