Among the Working Population as a Form of Disadaptation Process. Part II

Abstract

This work is a continuation of the article devoted to the spread of drug use among the working population and in various professional groups. The second part of the article, based on the materials of quantitative and qualitative studies conducted by the sector of sociology of deviant behavior (ISRAS – FCTAS RAS), as well as reviews of different studies, discusses the features of substance use in the Armed forces of the Russian Federation. The main latency factors of drug use were identified. It is noted that the structure of drug use among military almost completely reflects the structure of their distribution among population in in the country. It is shown that, despite the steadily decreasing number of people exempted from military service due to drug use and the military involved in drug consumption, the lack of detection of drug users in Russian army remains.
