A Moral Defense of Recreational Drug Use: Non-Harm-Based Arguments

[In this chapter, I continue evaluating non-harm-based arguments against recreational drug use. The non-harm-based arguments of the previous chapter were linked by the concepts of instrumentalization, addiction, and degradation. Here, they are linked by the concept of pleasure; at least, they are up until the final argument, which alas, does not fit very well in either of the chapters covering non-harm-based arguments. Given that the arguments in this chapter are so linked, it would be prudent to say a little more about what is meant by “pleasure.”]
