Isi artikel
On a recent evening, some 50 people turned up for their weekly reckoning at Judge Joel Bennett's drug court in Austin, Texas. Those who had had a good week--gone to their Narcotics Anonymous meetings and stayed out of trouble--got a round of applause. The ones who had stumbled received small punishments: a few hours of community service, a weekend in jail, a referral to inpatient treatment. Most were sanguine about that. Completing the program will mean a year of sobriety and the dismissal of their criminal charges. After the session, Mr Bennett noted that the drugs problem has grown worse during his nearly 20 years on the bench, largely due to poverty, poor education and cycles of abuse. Still, he reckoned, less punitive approaches to drug users are gaining acceptance. That is largely because the punitive approach has failed.
