„Drugs are fascinating—not only because of their effects on mind and body, but also because of our ideas and conceptions of them.“ (From the introduction to „Narcotic Cities“, Jovis 2023)
With essays from more than 40 authors, the new anthology Narcotic Cities. Counter-Cartographies of Drugs and Spaces (JOVIS Verlag) explores the complex network of drugs, institutions and experiences. Editors Mélina Germes, Luise Klaus and Stefan Höhne contribute to the current debate on the decriminalization of drug use through the medium of graphic essays as well as an exploration of urban stories, historical and political relationships, communities, and digital spaces regarding recreational drug use.
