Drug and Alcohol Studies – Theories, Pillars and Debates

Aarhus BSS Graduate School at Aarhus University

Studies of drugs and alcohol do not constitute a discipline in their own right, but rather comprise a wide range of social science disciplines, including sociology, psychology, anthropology, criminology, history and public health. Individual PhD projects in the field of drugs and alcohol often take their starting point in one of these disciplines. However, it is important to be aware of the central areas, debates and concepts that cut across the individual academic disciplines. Often, one's PhD project will touch upon or directly address some of these debates and areas. The purpose of this PhD course is therefore to introduce these central debates and areas from an interdisciplinary perspective. The goal is to enable PhD students to reflect critically on their own subject matter and to equip them to establish themselves as drug and alcohol researchers.
