This article presents data on the common-sense rules by which cannabis users regulate their use. The data are drawn from a comparative study of representative samples of experienced cannabis users in two cities with many similarities but with different drug control regimes—Amsterdam, in the Netherlands (decriminalization), and San Francisco (criminalization). An extensive survey of experienced cannabis users in Amsterdam was replicated in San Francisco as a strategy for identifying differences in cannabis use patterns having to do with differences in drug control. Most respondents reported having such rules and applying them most of the time. These data indicate a patterned selectivity about when, where, with whom, and under what conditions experienced users found cannabis use appropriate and inappropriate. We suggest that these rules are key elements in a kind of etiquette that Becker called 'user culture.' Despite drug policy differences, we found overwhelming similarity in these rules across the two cities. |
