Title: An Empirical Analysis of Alcohol Use, Drug Prohibition Enforcement and Major Crime in the USA Using State Level Aata for the 1990s

Summary: This study assesses the aggregate association in the USA (1988-2005) between alcohol and other drug consumption, drug prohibition enforcement and crimes against persons and property while controlling for potential confounders. Its main aim is to contribute to existing econometric evidence about the effectiveness of drug law enforcement as a tool for reducing other types of crime. A secondary aim is to address the question of whether increases in cannabinoid use and decreases in alcohol contributed to the enigmatic 1990s US nationwide crime decline.
