Dealing with Privilege

"Dealing with Privilege: Cannabis, Cocaine, and the Economic Foundations of Suburban Drug Culture focuses on the careers of nine retired drug dealers and offers a contrast to popular depictions of drug dealing as a realm of the deperate, dangerous, and poor. David Crawford tells the great untold story of drug dealing in America, where white, middle-class dealers are unlikely to suffer the enforcement of drug laws. Contrary to media portrayals, Crawford depicts suburban drug sales as an opportunity for friendship and fun more than a money-making operation. Crawford draws on economic anthropology, classic sociology, and neuroscience to analyze the life trajectories of these dealers and to explore issues of crime, race, culture, aging, gender, privilege, illegal drugs, and the limits of conventional economics as a framework to understand economic behavior"--Back cover.
