- W2473719005 abstract "The definition of a social problem can substantially affect the choice of policies to deal with the problem. Often it is desirable to define a problem in terms of three considerations : the attributes of the world that enter directly into utility functions and are likely to be affected by either the persistence of the problem or the policy instruments used; the policy instruments available; and the causal variables that will determine how effective the various policy instruments can be. It is in these terms that the author proposes a definition of the heroin problem. T JL JL he definition of a policy problem has more than semantic importance. If the purposes of a policy are too narrowly described, then important effects of policy proposals can easily be ignored or undervalued. If important variables affecting the behavior of the relevant system are overlooked, then significant opportunities or constraints on policy choices may be missed. In either case, the policy recommendations will be inappropriate. For heroin policy, the definition of the problem is particularly critical. Consider alternative definitions and their implications for government policy. Some see the objective of heroin policy as simply the reduction of heroin consumption. Abstinence is desirable, even if no other" @default.
