Abstract

In questo saggio definiamo “mercato sociale della cannabis” l’istituzione in cui avvengono scambi di cannabis tra amici “marginalmente orientati al profitto”. Mentre l’offerta “sociale” di cannabis è già stata studiata in letteratura, in questo saggio si analizza il lato della domanda di questo mercato. Pertanto, si sviluppa un modello teorico del mercato sociale della cannabis, basato sull’ipotesi che le transazioni siano investimenti in uno specifico capitale sociale. Inoltre, altre ipotesi circa le caratteristiche distintive di questa istituzione sono derivate da una analisi comparata con il mercato dei venditori professionisti. In particolare, l’ipotesi dell’esistenza di una correlazione positiva tra grado di integrazione sociale e frequentazione del mercato sociale è empiricamente verificata,grazie ad una indagine su un campione di consumatori. Infine, sulla base di un approccio costi-benefici, si deriva una implicazione normativa di questo modello.
