is a form of adaptation, a way of adapting to extreme social dislocation in fragmented societies. It is thus neither a disease that can be cured nor a moral error that can be corrected by punishment and education.

Addiction arises in fragmented societies because people use it as a way of adapting to extreme social dislocation. As a form of adaptation, addiction is neither a disease that can be cured nor a moral error that can be corrected by punishment and education.[11]Therefore, the current NIDA Model of addiction, which Alexander refers to as the official view, is untenable.[12] Contemporary world society can only overcome mass dislocation (and addiction) by restoring psychosocial integration on a political and social level. This requires major social change.[4](WIKIPEDIA)
