This study explores transformations of local drug geography in Klaipeda, 1990-2010. Using spatial analysis of geocoded data about 1351 cases of drug crime (manufacturing, storing, possession, and ...sale) and 1510 registered drug users, we researched spatial-temporal patterns of drug crime and drug abuse in changing post-soviet urban environment. Data for this study was provided by Klaipeda Police Headquarters and Klaipeda Centre for Addictive Disorders. We found, that key changes within local drug geography started in 1997-1999 and were caused by development of new economy expanding drug sale to anonymous customers. Since the collapse of the Soviet regime, drugs were mostly manufactured, circulated and used within underground social networks of drug users. The main features of those networks were trust and direct communication among drug users and dealers, who regularly were drug users also. Therefore drugs were locally produced, stored, sold and used in the same places; places of drug abuse and drug crime regularly overlapped. Nevertheless spatial patterns of such underground networks were more accidental in their nature, they had not clear attributes of spatial identify within urban environment. But newly emerging drug economy was based on commodity-money relations between drug dealers and drug users and new market regime clearly differentiated places of drug sale and drug use. Drug sale moved from blocks to the night clubs, marketplaces and surroundings of huge shopping centres. Sociologically such change within drug economy of post-soviet city might be interpreted as a shift from subcultural networks, where local knowledge and practices of street pharmacology were transmitted to new users, to the conspicuous consumption of branded and recreational drugs.
Studijoje aptariami kvaišalų geografijos pokyčiai, įvykę Klaipėdoje 1990-2010 m. Pritaikius erdvinę analizę, siekiama įvertinti piktnaudžiavimo narkotinėmis medžiagomis ir nelegalios kvaišalų apyvartos koncentraciją, nustatyti šių reiškinių sąsajas su konkrečiais urbanistinės erdvės režimais ir svarbiausias erdvines slinktis posovietiniu laikotarpiu. Studijoje panaudoti geoduomenys apie 1351 nusikaltimą, susijusį su nelegalia narkotikų apyvartą, ir apie 1510 registruotus narkotikų vartotojus. Duomenys paimti iš dviejų socialinės kontrolės registrų – Klaipėdos priklausomybės ligų centro ir Klaipėdos Vyriausiojo policijos komisariato. Erdvinė analizė parodė, kad svarbiausi kvaišalų geografijos pokyčiai mieste nulemti anoniminės narkotikų platinimo ekonomikos formavimosi, kuris prasidėjo apie 1997-1999 m. Ankstyvuoju posovietiniu laikotarpiu mieste narkotikų vartojimas ir nelegali apyvarta vyko pogrindiniuose socialiuose tinkluose, kur svarbus vaidmuo teko pasitikėjimui ir tiesioginei komunikacijai, o kvaišalų saugojimo, gamybos, apyvartos ir vartojimo vietos dažnai sutapdavo. Tokių socialinių tinklų erdvinė sklaida mieste buvo atsitiktinio pobūdžio, todėl jų negalima buvo lengvai identifikuoti pagal erdvinius atributus. Tačiau anoniminės kvaišalų ekonomikos, grindžiamos tik pinginiais santykiais, formavimasis labai aiškiai diferencijavo kvaišalų vartojimo ir apyvartos vietas. Svarbiausios platinimo vietos tapo miesto prekybos centrų prieigos, turgus ir naktiniai klubai. Sociologiškai tokių kvaišalų geografijos pokyčius galima interpretuoti kaip perėjimą nuo subkultūrinių tinklų, kuriuose cirkuliavo vietinės gatvinės farmakologijos žinios, prie globalių vartotojiškos kultūros nuostatų įsigalėjimo „narkotikų ekonomikoje“.
Ovisnost o drogama je čimbenik rizika za nastanak brojnih akutnih i kroničnih komplikacija pluća koje se mogu razviti zbog lošeg općeg zdravlja ovisnika, ali i zbog izravnog djelovanja heroina na ...depresiju disanja. U ovom prikazu slučaja radi se o 40-godišnjem bolesniku koji je zaprimljen na Objedinjeni hitni prijam KB Sveti Duh zbog povišene temperature praćene zimicom, otežanim disanjem i bolovima u lijevoj strani prsišta. Obradom je utvrđena višestruka plućna patologija kao posljedica intravenske primjene drobljenog metadona, a koja je uključivala submasivnu plućnu emboliju, obostranu upalu pluća, poremećaj plućnog intersticija, multiple infarkte pluća te lijevostrani pleuralni izljev. Nakon početne obrade bolesnik je premješten u Jedinicu intenzivnog liječenja gdje je provedeno liječenje nefrakcioniranim heparinom, intravenskim antibioticima, antifungicima, vitaminom B12 te ostalom simptomatskom terapijom. Nakon provedenog liječenja u bolesnika je došlo do poboljšanja laboratorijskih i radioloških nalaza te subjektivnog stanja. Zbog nespecifi čne simptomatologije, te odsustva karakterističnih kliničkih znakova uz često višestruku plućnu patologiju u bolesnika koji uzimaju drogu postavljanje dijagnoze ponekad je izuzetno teško. Iz tog razloga, u svih ovisnika o drogama važan je visok stupanj sumnje uz organizirani dijagnostičko terapijski pristup kako bi se na vrijeme započelo liječenje potencijalno smrtonosnih plućnih komplikacija.
Provider: - Institution: - Data provided by Europeana Collections- This dissertation is an attempt to draw attention to the growing problem of drug abuse in the world and in our country, especially ...among children and youth. The author of this research through years of work in many secondary educational institutions, with children aged 14 - 18 age (turbulent period of mentally and physically personality development) noticed the changes and growing differences in the negative sense of psychosocial relationships between parents and children, children and school, teachers and children, and the relationship among children which causes bullying, and the collapse of healthy and positive values of the individual. These negative tendencies in society add to the development of many anti-social, often socio-pathological phenomena, that threaten the safety of youth, and therefore the safety of society and a country as a whole. Precisely these factors form the starting point for the research outlined in this paper. First, the paper provides a brief historical overview of the first human experience with the drugs of natural origin and their use, as well as the development of synthetic substances that derive from natural but pharmacologically stronger drugs. It seems that from the very beginning a man was familiar with the harmful effects of drugs, which is best illustrated by the fact that even in those early days children, women and pregnant women weren't allowed to use drugs. Unfortunately, today's modern society is faced with a growing problem of substance and drug abuse. The subject of this dissertation is focused on the social aspects of drug abuse - drug addiction among youth as a cause of contemporary safety issues in the Republic of Serbia. Drug abuse is characterized by two causal phenomena which are at the base of the social pathologies of modern society and young people. The first phenomenon is substance abuse among young people and therefore we analyzed the factors that cause the development of the abuse as well as the ways, means, and subjects that are supposed to take part in fighting this modern plague. Another phenomenon is the drug mafia whose illegal activities (production, transport and trade) has significant negative impact on youth. Therefore, this study covers several areas related to drug abuse starting from the causes, conditions and consequences of this negative phenomenon among the young people, and taking into a consideration all the activities of illegal drug manufacturers. Further on, the subject of this paper includes issues related to the solution of this problem in terms of security, as well as methods and ways of opposing and eradicating this evil. The underlying idea of this research is a sublimation of theoretical and empirical knowledge for thorough understanding of this contemporary problem. The complexity of the research required the use of multiple research methods such as a method of content analysis, a method of secondary data analysis of content (comparative) method, statistical method and in-depth interview. The scientific objective of the research in this PhD thesis is reflected in systematizing scientific and theoretical knowledge of the socio-medical problem which threatens the overall safety of young people and the country in general. The practical aim of the research is to expand knowledge about the characteristics and dimensions of the initial conditions and causes of drug and substance abuse as well as to create awareness about the necessity of improving the socio-educational and safety culture and practice control, prevention and eradication of negative events. Taking into consideration the scientific and social justification, a research conceived like this aims to strengthen and expand the knowledge of drug abuse problems, and protects young population and safety in society. The first chapter of this paper presents general observations and baseline factors that contribute to anti-social phenomenon among young people, from vagrancy, smoking, occasional alcohol consumption. This leads to neglecting family and school obligations and school, which can be considered an beginning of anti-social behavior, which can incline toward social pathology if it isn't stopped. This chapter also discusses the types and characteristics of drugs and other psychoactive substances and their effects on the body of a young person, and the consequences of drug abuse. The second chapter highlights several effects of substance abuse, such as endangerment of the mental and physical condition of a drug addict, as well as the socio-economic status of his family. An addict first uses the substance carelessly, and then forced by the demands of the body for the substance (drugs) he enters into a vicious circle that causes behavior which endangers himself, his family and surroundings in socio-medical, economic and security terms. The third chapter of this study shows the burden of drug addiction on the individual, the family and the country as a whole. All indicators of socio-medical, economic and security aspects point to the large impact of drug abuse (drug addiction) on overall situation in the country, because an addict is unable to take care of himself so his family is burdened, preoccupied with the problem (concerning social, economic, medical and legal status). Also, an addict is subject to self-destructive behaviour and suicide. The addict is unable to be engaged in the country defense. Significant financial resources are needed in order to hire professionals who can cure addiction and work on re-socialization of an addict. In addition to this, the study examines and explains the origin, development and fighting against drug related crime that with its diverse actions (corruption, money laundering, organized crime) cause serious harm and even threatens the overall security, and normal functioning of the state. The final chapter of of this paper is an attempt to analyze and investigate fully the hypothesis that drug and substance abuse affects youth, which creates socio-medical, economic, legal and safety issues, while at the same time it suggests ways to fight and eradicate this plague.- Ova doktorska disertacija je još jedan pokušaj da se ukaže na rastući problem zloupotrebe droga - narkomanije kako u svetu tako i kod nas, naročito usmeren ka deci i omladini. Dugogodišnji rad samog autora ovog istraživanja u mnogim srednjoškolskim vaspitno-obrazovnim ustanovama, odnosno neposrednim učešćem u toj oblasti sa decom uzrasta od 14. do 18. godine starosti (najburniji psihofizički razvoj ličnosti) gde su uočavane promene i rastuće razlike u negativnom smislu psiho-socijalnih odnosa između roditelja i dece, dece i škole, nastavnika i dece i međusobni odnos dece, što uzrokuje vršnjačko nasilje potom i urušavanje zdravih i pozitivnih vrednosti pojedinca. To sveukupno pospešuje razvoj mnogobrojnih asocijalnih pojava do sociopatoloških, koje ugrožavaju sveukupnu bezbednost mladih, a samim tim i bezbednost društva i države u celini. Ti činioci su polazni inicijator ka sublimaciji sveukupnog iskustva sažetog u ovom radu. Najpre je dat kratak istorijski pregled događaja i svedočanstava o postojanju droge prirodnog porekla i čovekovog susreta-upotrebe psihoaktivnih biljaka, zatim pronalaženjem novih suspstanci-sintetizovanjem analogno prirodnim samo farmakološki jačim. Važno je napomenuti da u tom početnom periodu upotreba droga prirodnog porekla, odnos čoveka i droge je bio takav da se zabranjivala upotreba deci, ženama i trudnicama. Što govorio dobrom poznavanju njihovog delovanja, odnosno teških posledica po razvoj dece. Nakon mnogo vekova upotrebe i zloupotrebe droga do danas kada su droge i PAS zabranjene za upotrebu, osim kontrolisano za medicinske potrebe, srećemo se sa rastućim problemom zloupotrebe. Predmet istraživanja ove doktorske disertacije usmeren je na socijalne aspekte zloupotrebe droga-narkomanije mladih kao uzroka savremenih bezbednosnih problema u Republici Srbiji. Zloupotrebu droga karakterišu dve uzročno - posledične snažno povezane pojave koje čine bazu socijalne patologije savremenog društva, naročito mladih. Prva pojava je zloupotreba droga i PAS od strane mladih te su shodno tome analizirani činioci koji pogoduju razvoju narkomanije kod mladih kao načini, sredstva, i subjekti koji bi trebali i morali da učetsvuju u suprotstavljanju ovoj savremenoj pošasti. Druga pojava je zloupotreba droga od strane narko-mafije koja svojim ilegalnim radom (proizvodnja, transport i trgovina) ima višestruki negativan uticaj na mlade. Stoga, predmet ovog istraživanja obuhvata nekoliko oblasti vezanih za zloupotrebu droga počev od uzroka, uslova i posledica ove negativne pojave kako kod mladih, tako i od strane ilegalnih proizvođača. Dalje predmet ovog rada obuhvata i pitanja vezana za rešavanje ovog problema sa aspekta bezbednosti, to jest metode i oblike suprotstavljanja i iskorenjivanja ovog zla. Osnova cilja ovog istraživanja je sublimacija teorijskih i empirijskih saznanja radi temeljnije spoznaje fenomenoloških obeležja ovog savremenog problema. Složenost ovog problema istraživanja zahtevala je komplementarno korišćenje više metoda istraživanja (metod analize sadržaja, metod sekundarne analize sadržaja (komparativni) metod, statistički metod i dubinski intervju). Naučni cilj istraživanja u ovoj doktorskoj disertaciji ogleda se u sistematizovanju i upotpunjavanju naučno-teorijskih saznanja o socio-medicinskom problemu a potom i sveukupnoj bezbednosti mladih i na kraju države u celini. Praktičan cilj istraživanja je proširivanje saznanja o polaznim karakteristikama i dimenzijama uslova i uzroka zloupotreba opojnih droga i PAS kao i unapređivanje metoda ka stvaranju svesti o nužnosti unapređenja socio- pedagoške i bezbednosne kulture potom i prakse u suzbijanju, sprečavanju i iskorenjivanju negativnih pojava. Posmatrajući sa aspekta naučne i društvene opravdanosti, ovako koncipirano istraživanje je usme

U radu se analizira ekonomski aspekt problema ovisništva o drogama. Smisleni okvir rada bazira se na tri ocjene kojima se pokušava sociologijski motriti taj problem: da ovisnost o heroinu ima ...obilježja totalnoga društvenog fenomena; da ta pojava ima značajke socijalnog problema; da su ponašanja ovisnika koja se odnose na pribavljanja sredstava za tu drogu u velikoj mjeri obilježena društvenom devijantnošću. Na osnovi iskustvenih pokazatelja, dobijenih metodom životne povijesti (uzorak od pedeset ovisnika o heroinu iz Splita), analizira se tržište, potražnja i ponuda heroina u Splitu u prvoj polovini ovoga desetljeća. Ključni su zaključci ovoga rada da u Splitu postoji veliko tržište i ponuda heroina kao robe. Za tom robom vlada znatna potražnja, i to ona efektivnog tipa označena ne samo namjerom većeg broja ovisnika da heroin kupe nego i njihovom sposobnošću da pribave sredstva za tu svrhu, pri čemu se kombiniraju različiti nezakoniti načini pribavljanja sredstava.
