Verein für Drogenpolitik. (2004). Globales Cannabisregulierungsmodell 2004. Mannheim: Verein für Drogenpolitik (VfD).
Abstract: Trotz grösster politischer, finanzieller, polizeilicher und militärischer Anstrengungen ist es bis heute keinem einzigen Staat der Erde gelungen, einen bestehenden illegalen Cannabismarkt zu beseitigen. In der Diskussion über den “richtigen” politischen Umgang mit Cannabis steht die Frage nach der “Cannabislegalisierung” pro und contra meist im Mittelpunkt. Wir denken, die bessere, weil präzisere Fragestellung ist die folgende: Soll Cannabis auf einem legalen oder illegalen Markt gehandelt werden? Solange durch Angebot und Nachfrage ein Cannabismarkt entsteht und Regierungen nicht dazu in der Lage sind, dies zu unterbinden, stellt sich für Staat und Gesellschaft nur eine Frage: Ist ein staatlich regulierter und streng kontrollierter oder ein “wilder” und fesselloser Cannabismarkt besser für Staat und Bürger? Wir bieten in dieser Broschüre ein globales, prinzipiell in jedem Staat anwendbares Modell an, mit dem ein illegaler in einen legalen Cannabismarkt transformiert werden kann. In fünf Kapiteln erläutern wir die notwendigen Hintergrundinformationen und die Details des eigentlichen “Globalen Cannabisregulierungsmodells”.

Hepatitis C Subcommittee of the Ministerial Advisory Committee on AIDS, S. H. and H., & Blood Borne Virus and Sexually Transmissible Infections Subcommittee of the Australian Population Health Development Committee (Eds.). (2007). National hepatitis C testing policy. Canberra: Australian Government, Department of Health and Ageing.
Abstract: In discussing hepatitis C testing in this policy a number of tests conducted at different times or together are described. These tests indicate whether an individual has come into contact with the hepatitis C virus (HCV), and if they have, whether they have cleared the virus (spontaneously or with previous interventions) or are chronically infected. It is crucial, therefore that those people responsible for implementing the policy, particularly those performing pre-test and post-test discussions, have the skills and knowledge to fully communicate the significance of each of the tests available. Principles of hepatitis C testing The seven basic principles that guide hepatitis C testing in Australia are that: • confidential, voluntary testing with informed consent and pre-test and post-discussion is fundamental to Australia’s response to hepatitis C; • testing is of the highest possible standard; • testing is of benefit to the person being tested; • testing is accessible to all those at risk of HCV infection; • testing is critical to understanding the epidemiology of HCV infection in the community; • testing can be critical to interruption of transmission and can support harm minimisation; and • testing to monitor people with HCV before, during or after treatment is an integral part of their care.
