This week, Parlons Canna welcomes Mathieu Zagrodzki, eminent researcher in political science, who published a groundbreaking report with Terra Nova titled “cannabis: for another police and penal strategy”.
Although he has never touched cannabis, he has an in-depth understanding of the issue, having studied police-population relations, the management of police services, as well as questions of daily security.
In this captivating episode, Mathieu Zagrodzki shares with us his enlightened vision on the cannabis market, politics, legislation and above all, the position of the police regarding this substance. It explores current police and penal strategies, and offers innovative ideas for finding the right balance between repression and tolerance.
The cannabis debate in France is complex and far from resolved. For decades, politicians have tried to find a balance between repression and tolerance, but despite all the years of prohibition, this substance remains the most consumed drug in the country. In this battle against drugs, the police play a crucial role, but is this really the right strategy?
This episode of Let’s Talk Canna explores that question with a subject matter expert, who brings fresh ideas and in-depth knowledge of the subject.
