Wincup, E orcid.org/0000-0001-5243-073X (2019) Women as vulnerable subjects: A gendered reading of the English and Irish drug strategies. Addictive Behaviors, 98. 105995. ISSN 0306-4603
Abstract
Highlights
• Both strategies use vulnerability to understand women's pathways into/out of drugs.
• The UK strategy concentrates on ‘victimized’ women who are vulnerable to drug use.
• The Irish strategy focuses on women's continuing drug use due poor service provision.
• Both strategies fall short of a gender-responsive approach to drug policy.
• Gender mainstreaming is needed to develop more inclusive drug policies.
