Drug trafficking is an illicit business that involves various players including wealthier and the poor people. The reason for involvement of the traffickers in this business is much influenced by diverging interests or motives; hence control or intervention measures cannot be uniform. There are various theories which help to understand why people engage in the illicit drug business. Governments need to devise and implement drug control mechanisms taking into account the nature of drug network, available theories, and best practices from other countries. This article critically assesses the contribution of the theories and best practices in designing effective drug trafficking control mechanisms in Tanzania. The article is purely descriptive and is based on doctrinal sources.
