This method is explored as part of the broader struggle against the scourge of alcohol abuse, a major problem facing governments and societies worldwide. Using the Scandinavian method as an example, the author attempts to persuade us that a neutral, cooperative, and public-minded approach to the sale of alcohol can radically diminish its consumption and reduce its social ills. The author argues that the Scandinavian method of regulation offers a robust tool in the fight to lower alcohol consumption, and the benefits are especially pronounced in large cities. The book explores the Scandinavian method, discussing its intricacies and development. In doing so it demonstrates how a prohibitionist approach to alcohol consumption is incompatible with broader, rational public policy aims. The author argues that governments need to focus on reforming drinking habits with a multi-faceted approach, and that their efforts will be better served through collaboration with conscientious private enterprise actors.
