Abstract

Private body, public body — the shaping of the Dutch anti-drugs discourse

The paper aims to present and analyze selected fragments of the Hulsman Commission’s advisory report from the year 1971 — a first modern investigation on the drug problem in the Netherlands, approached from an interdisciplinary perspective. The author analyzes the moments of shaping and re-shaping the discourse on drugs and deconstruction of its most transparent assumptions. The theoretical background of the analysis are selected terms of Laclau and Mouff e’s discourse theory.
