“…Crime is everywhere, crime and criminal activities have constantly been a part of human existence. (Blokland and Šerbedžija, 2020) With that, South African crimes appear to be one of the highest astonishing crimes when compared to neighbouring countries and countries abroad (Brittany and Bezuidenhout, 2019) The research aims at discussing the intricacies associated with illicit use of drugs in South Africa and the legislations implemented by the government to combat the incidence of the social vices.

South African societies have been characterized by the prolific incidence of illicit drug use in recent times. The paper attempts to examine the legislations implemented on the use of illicit drugs in South Africa. The study adopts a review of the literature to identify and describe the most common illicit drugs used around South Africa communities, placing emphasis on the policies developed by the South African government in combating these situations. The research follows a critical discussion on the issues associated with drug use, its causes, as well as its effects on humans and the environment. The study recommends relevant initiatives to combat all intricacies associated with drug use within the country. This approach will be appropriate in facilitating a clear-cut understanding of the possible remedies to quench the burning flame of illicit drug use across a broad range of South African communities.

ZusammenfassungBislang haben sich hiesige Soziolog:innen unzureichend mit Räumen des Reichtums befasst. Auf der Basis einer kritischen Analyse internationaler Literatur lädt dieser Beitrag zu einer soziologischen Erforschung der Wohngebiete am oberen Ende der Sozialstruktur in Deutschland ein. Insbesondere stellt der Beitrag drei vielversprechende Perspektiven heraus: den ethnographischen Blick, den historischen Blick und den relationalen Blick.
