Beschrijving

Bol Addiction arises from a complex interplay of biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors. Individual risk factors, including genetic predisposition, mental health conditions, and early substance exposure, can increase vulnerability, while broader social influences help shape patterns of addictive behavior. Poverty, family instability, peer pressure, trauma, and limited access to healthcare can contribute to the onset and persistence of substance use disorders. In response to the far-reaching effects of addiction, policymakers have adopted a variety of strategies, including prevention and education programs, treatment initiatives, and harm-reduction approaches. Understanding the relationship between individual risk factors, social environments, and public policy is essential for developing effective interventions that reduce addiction rates and support long-term recovery. Risk Factors, Social Contexts, and Policy Responses to Addiction examines addiction as a socially embedded phenomenon shaped by structural inequalities, cultural influences, and environmental conditions. It explores how socioeconomic status, migration, urbanization, gender, family dynamics, and digital environments affect patterns of both substance-related and behavioral addictions. Covering topics related to addiction vulnerability, family detachment, and social work, this book serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, government officials, healthcare professionals, researchers, academicians, and students seeking a deeper understanding of addiction and evidence-based policy responses.
