kábítószeregyezményei

The term "kábítószeregyezményei" translates from Hungarian to "drug conventions." This refers to a series of international treaties and agreements aimed at controlling and regulating the production, distribution, and use of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances. These conventions are overseen by international bodies, most notably the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

The foundational agreements include the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, which consolidated previous treaties, and the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances, which addressed a wider range of mind-altering drugs. Later, the 1988 United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances was adopted to combat illicit manufacturing and trafficking.

These conventions establish a framework for national legislation, obliging signatory states to implement control measures. This includes classifying substances based on their potential for abuse and therapeutic value, controlling their manufacture and trade, and cooperating internationally to prevent diversion and illicit trafficking. The goal is to ensure that drugs are available for medical and scientific purposes while preventing their abuse and illegal spread. While effective in setting international standards, the practical implementation and effectiveness of these conventions are subjects of ongoing debate and discussion among member states and international organizations.
