grassroots model of drug laws
Definition
- The grassroots approach to drug laws is defined as any spontaneous, independent social movement that endeavors to influence existing drug laws and policies. Grassroots movements are citizen-initiated and citizen-controlled voluntary efforts that typically work to promote social change; some might advocate strengthening existing drug laws by increasing sanctions or criminalizing a wider range of drug activity, whereas others might support the weakening or abolition of prevailing drug laws and penalties.
