Thomas Friis Søgaard, Tuulia Lerkkanen
Abstract
The composition, use, policies, and the societal position of cannabis are changing and diversifying internationally. Cannabis has emerged as an object of much controversy and is subject to varying forms of regulation. Its role and regulation are also debated in the Nordic countries. To shed light on such developments, this special issue sets out to explore how the phenomenon of cannabis, and related policies and subjectivities, are currently made , unmade , and transformed in multiple ways through discourses, practices, and materiality, and with different consequences.
