Abstract

What explains variation in the adoption of cannabis regulation reforms, both for medical and recreational purposes, across Latin America? This article argues that social mobilisation is essential to understand where debates for reform emerge and become stronger. Yet it further contends that policy adoption depends on the existence of pro-reform elite political coalitions. These coalitions in turn depend on whether drug policy becomes a legislative priority and on specific conditions of the party system. The article compares four countries that show variation in the timing and content of reform: Argentina, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay.

来自上层的变革还是来自下层的压力?大麻改革在拉丁美洲的扩散
是什么原因导致拉丁美洲各国在医疗和娱乐用途大麻监管改革方面出现差异?本文认为,社会动员对于理解改革辩论在哪里出现和变得更加有力至关重要。但本文进一步认为,政策的采纳取决于是否存在支持改革的精英政治联盟。这些联盟反过来又取决于毒品政策是否成为立法优先事项以及政党制度的具体条件。文章比较了四个在改革时机和内容方面存在差异的国家:阿根廷、智利、巴拉圭和乌拉圭。
