Teaching activity

The Business of Drugs: inside the economics of America's longest war

Sarah Best

24th July 2020

A new Netflix series highlights 'The Business of Drugs' with each episode tackling one type of drug.

The series contains interviews with large array of people involved, directly and some more indirectly with the drug trade. The first episode focuses on cocaine.

Disclaimer - I have to admit that I have not watched the entire series yet, but from the first episode at least, students could watch these as part of the Crime and Deviance unit and there are links to pretty much everything!

Students will need a Netflix account to access the entire series.
