UK Helps Organize, Host Kremers Seminar on Exploring Opioids, Addiction


LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 24, 2021) It s a question that is critical to families and communities across the Commonwealth how do we tackle the opioid epidemic?
The 2021 “Kreminar” will feature virtual seminars about the history and contemporary status of opiates, opioids and addiction.
“The Cooperative for the Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) is pleased to co-sponsor these events because it is important to understand that drug use and opioid addiction have both a global and a local history,” Karen Petrone, director of CHSS, said. “Understanding this history helps scholars and practitioners to imagine future solutions to social and health problems.”
“The opioid crisis is a pressing local concern, and substance use is one of our university s research priorities,” Claire Clark, associate professor of behavioral science in the College of Medicine, added. “The ‘Kreminar’ provides an opportunity for us to think about this issue globally, as well as lo ....

White Market Drugs: Big Pharma and the Hidden History of Addiction in America
by David Herzberg
University of Chicago Press, 2020, 400 pp.
Reams have been written about the misdeeds of Purdue Pharma, the manufacturer of OxyContin, and Purdue’s majority owners, the Sackler family. After years of litigation prompted by spiking overdose rates, in November 2020 Purdue pleaded guilty to conspiracy to aid and abet doctors in dispensing OxyContin without a legitimate medical purpose. The company was ordered to pay $8.3 billion in penalties, damage, and forfeiture. This sum is less impressive than it looked in headlines: Purdue’s bankruptcy in 2019 means that the money is unlikely to be collected. Though they were branded as villains in the eyes of the public, the Sacklers escaped criminal charges and had to pay only $225 million of their family money—small potatoes for a family that took some $10 billion out of Purdue between 2007 and 2017. ....

How America Segregates Drug Use


new face was young, white, and “all-American.” In the 2000s, many cases of addiction to heroin began with pharmaceutical opioids that
had flooded the market since the late 1990s, thanks in large part to toothless regulators captured by corporate interests. A glut of high-dose
opioids like oxycodone
flowing through the medical market found a young,
white consumer base in the illicit market willing to pay top dollar. But things took a dark turn around 2010, when pharmaceutical opioids became scarce, expensive, and tamper-proof,
which sparked a mass exodus from pills to cheap, potent, and widely available heroin. Some experts thought a “rush” to the heroin market wouldn’t be all that bad, but since the crackdown on pharmaceutical opioids, ....

How Real Nazis Came to the Americas: the Recruitment of Klaus Barbie


February 26, 2021
By Jeffrey St. CLAIR
By the time Klaus Barbie went on the payroll of an American intelligence organization in 1947, Klaus Barbie had lived several lifetimes of human vileness. Barbie sought out opponents of the Nazis in Holland, chasing them down with dogs. He had worked for the Nazi mobile death squads on the Eastern Front, massacring Slavs and Jews. He’d put in two years heading the Gestapo in Lyons, France, torturing to death Jews and French Resistance fighters (among them the head of the Resistance, Jean Moulin. ) After the liberation of France, Barbie participated in the final Nazi killing frenzy before Allies moved into Germany. ....
