The effect of drug abuse is negative while the effect of drug use is positive.

Drug use is always medicinal. That means there is positive health consequences and the outcome is often better biologically, socially, psychologically, environmentally and legally. For an example, taking Panadol to overcome a headache, make the individual happy and associate with others in a good manner. But, this is something alter in drug abuse. It psychologically and biologically affects to the individual in a bad way. Social, environmental and legal outcomes are also bad. Drug abuse directly affect to the brain and their by wholly affects to the body. It can damage to liver, make heart attacks and other long term diseases like HIV, Hepatitis (as a result of injecting the drug using the same needle). Mentally, abusers become depressed, stimulate or hallucinogenic, or the total mentality get changed. People may become more aggressive and become socially problematic. Drug abuse often may cause to crime like social problems. And they also violate the law.

Understanding the Theory of Subculture: How Delinquent Subcultures Form and Function

Subculture refers to an organized set of values, norms, beliefs, and attitudes that have become a traditional way of life among certain segments of a population. Delinquent subcultures, on the other hand, are those where anti-social behavior is required by the norms of the group. In 1955, Albert Cohen proposed a theory of delinquency in his book "Delinquent Boys," which sought to explain the origin and functions of delinquent subcultures. According to Cohen's theory, delinquency is not inborn or something the individual contrives on their own. Instead, individuals learn to become delinquent by interacting with others who share this pattern. Delinquent patterns are acquired by becoming a member of a group where delinquency is already an established pattern and is required by the norms of the group. Cohen believed that the delinquent subculture develops as a response and solution to the problem of "status frustration," which occurs because of socialization. Social...

They can also be found in dried capsules or liquid. When psilocybin is taken, it is converted in th...

Ethnic Background Toward Crimes in Sri Lanka (1948 – 1970)

There emerged so many contributory factors for the rise of LTTE as Tamils were highly discriminated. During 1948 – 1949, “Anti Tamil Legislation” was passed by the newly appointed government. Indian Tamil lost their citizenship in Sri Lanka with the enactment of Ceylon Citizenship Act. In 1956, Tamil was established as the second language while Sinhala was established as the official language. With the enactment of Sinhala Only Act, many Burghers went abroad, because they felt discrimination. There arose a communication issue between Sinhala and Tamils, as they had communicated in English up to then.  In 1957, with the objective of providing more rights to Tamil people, Prime Minister S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike signed an agreement with Chelvanayakam, the leader of Tamil Arasu Katchi Party. However, P. G. Ponnambalam, and J. R. Jayawardene, a former UNP member, opposed to this agreement. J. R. Jayawardene also organized a march from Kandy to express his objection. Sinhala community op...
