The topic of this episode is “Drugs in the Netherlands: A root of Dutch culture?”. In this episode we deal with the Opium Law and how it affected the drug culture in the Netherlands in the 60s and 70s. Then we talk about how it shaped, in a certain way, the Dutch culture and discuss the problem of addiction. Finally we deal with the perception of drug consumption by Dutch people and people from all over the world. So if you have 15 minutes to spare, take a break, make a coffee, and enjoy!
