JOHAN EDMAN & BÖRJE OLSSON

AIM – To analyse the Swedish drug question by examining dominant concepts used to portray the problem in the years 1839–2011. Theoretically, we understand these concepts as ideological tools that shape the political initiatives and administrative efforts to deal with the problem. The study is based on two kinds of source material: articles in medical journals from the years 1839–1964 and public reports on vagrancy, the alcohol problem, mental health and the drug problem from the years 1882–2011
