European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction. (2010). Problem amphetamine and methamphetamine use in Europe : summary – selected issue. Lisbon: European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA).
Abstract: Focusing on European countries where amphetamine or methamphetamine is an important part of the drug problem, this Selected issue looks at the current situation in the light of the historical development of amphetamines (1) use since the introduction of these substances as medicines in the 1930s. The history of amphetamines use is the result of an interplay of global forces, such as the spread of recreational drug use in the 1960s and the arrival of heroin on the European drug scene in the 1970s, and local events such as the rise of small-scale pervitin (methamphetamine) production in what was then Czechoslovakia. The outcome of this is that, in the present day, problem amphetamines use across Europe is marked by strong national characteristics, possibly more so than any other of the major illicit drugs.
Keywords: addiction; AOD use, abuse, and dependence; chemical addiction; amphetamines; methamphetamines; history; drug trafficking; AOD supply; other drug laws; AOD effects and consequences; Europe

European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction. (2012). Travel and drug use in Europe : a short review. Lisbon: European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA).
Abstract: Recent decades have seen a growth in travel and tourism abroad because of cheap air fares and holiday packages. This has been accompanied by a relaxation of border controls, especially within parts of Europe participating in the Schengen Agreement. As some people may be more inclined to use illicit substances during holiday periods and some may even choose to travel to destinations that are associated with drug use – a phenomenon sometimes referred to as “drug tourism” – this means that from a European drug policy perspective the issue of drug use and travel has become more important.
Keywords: AOD use; AOD associated consequences; public AOD use; drug market; Europe
