Definición

  • U.S. President Richard Nixon established the first War on Drugs in 1971, and President Ronald Reagan expanded the policy in 1986. Since that time, the United States has spent billions of dollars—exact estimates are difficult to calculate—and the number of incarcerated drug offenders has catapulted incarceration rates in the United States to the highest of all nations in the world.
