Treball final de Grau en Criminologia i Seguretat. Codi: CS1044. Curs acadèmic 2014-2015The global phenomenon of drugs is an object of study, concern and debate. The purpose of this paper is to provide data and documentation obtained from the international regulatory framework affecting Spain and a reality that does not correspond with the objectives underlying the criminal policies to eradicate illicit drug trafficking in our country. The barriers between producer and consumer countries are fading, the financial circuit of drugs is alarming and the routes are becoming more unpredictable. The internet and communication revolution makes difficult the purposes of keeping proof in the drug trafficking operations. For this reason it’s required a global legislation. The penalties and the criminal conduct has increased around the world despite the efforts being made against the drug-trafficking and law-enforcement measures, statistics show us the reality which is more drugs and more prisoners, but above all, the great forgotten, the final consumer or addict. To conclude, I would like to emphasize that the decriminalization of cannabis, has a lack of an effective criminal policy. In my opinion it should provide some accurate solutions according to our society
