Zusammenfassung:In Eurodrugs, published in 1995, Nigel South and I noted a process whereby drug supply was structuring, while being structured by, demand emerging from varied pools of consumers associated with diverse lifestyles. The notion of normalization tried to capture this development, although now, almost 30 years on, other aspects of the process come to light. Diversification of demand triggers competition in illicit markets but also attracts new entrepreneurial energies operating in the official economy. This chapter focuses on the new forms of drug normalization, concluding that, long before Eurodrugs, the Surrealist movement had more radically described ‘normalized’ drug use as miserably conformist.
