John Gettman's Research Links
Anyone interested in the legalization of marijuana soon discovers that drug policy reform of any kind is a complicated issue. One sure thing, though, is that accurate information remains one of the most persuasive and powerful tools available to reformers. The key to getting accurate information is, whenever possible, to go to the source.

Here are fifty links to valuable background information on marijuana and drug policy reform. While collected primarily for students and activists these sites also provide interesting data, articles, commentary, and analysis for the general public. These links fall into four broad categories, providing sources for data, analysis, legal and public policy context, and background on non-profit organization management. They contain valuable information for the serious reformer as well as interesting perspectives for interested observer.
