摘要
This paper presents a model that estimates the relative cost-effectiveness of four cocaine-control programs: three ''supply control'' programs (source-country control, interdiction, and domestic enforcement) and a ''demand control'' program (treating heavy users). Treatment emerges as by far the most cost-effective, and sensitivity analyses show that this result is very robust.
