The 2016 United Nations General Assembly's Special Session on the World Drug Problem (UNGASS) was a 'critical moment' in recent global drug policy history.
This study examines the dynamics and consequences of UNGASS 2016 using documentary analysis and interviews with ten leading international drug reform experts.
International consensus relating to the global drug problem remains heavily fractured. This is evident from: the increasingly diverse positions adopted by Member States during the negotiation period leading up to UNGASS; conflicting agendas within and between different United Nations agencies; and the content of the UNGASS Outcome Document. Our interviews further revealed key obstacles facing the international drug policy reform community following this event.
Global governance in the sphere of drug policy has reached an impasse but this should have limited impact on the ongoing efforts of reformers to shift the debate so long as civil society actors have access to funding and opportunities to participate in key future global drug policy events.
2016 年联合国大会特别会议审议世界毒品问题（UNGASS）是全球毒品政策史上的“关键时刻”。
本研究使用文件分析和对十位国际毒品改革专家的访谈，考察了 2016 年 UNGASS 的动态和后果。
国际社会对全球毒品问题的共识仍然严重分裂。这一点可以从以下方面看出：在 UNGASS 谈判期间，会员国采取的立场越来越多样化；不同联合国机构内部和之间存在相互冲突的议程；以及 UNGASS 成果文件的内容。我们的访谈还进一步揭示了此次活动之后，国际毒品政策改革界面临的主要障碍。
毒品政策领域的全球治理已经陷入僵局，但只要民间社会行为者有机会获得资金并参与未来的关键全球毒品政策活动，这对改革者努力推动辩论的努力影响有限。
