The Impact of Narcotics Use and Selling in Criminological Studies: Learn from Indonesia.

One of the factors that hinders development in both Indonesia and many other countries is the problem of narcotics. This paper purposes to analyze the impact of the use and trafficking of narcotics in Indonesia and law enforcement on narcotics crimes in Indonesia. The method used is socio-juridical using a statutory approach, case approach, and criminology. The data used are primary and secondary data through interviews, literature study and document study. All data collected were then analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that the direct impact of drugs on the human psyche/mental is causing mental depression, serious mental disorders/psychotic, causing suicide, and causing crime, violence and destruction. The factors causing narcotics crimes in the jurisdiction of the Kutai Barat Police Department, which the authors managed to get from the field study, could be caused by many factors, both internal and external factors. Law enforcement is an effort to bring the ideas of justice, legal certainty and social benefits into reality. The efforts made by the Kutai Barat Police Department in overcoming narcotics crimes that occurred in the Kutai Barat Regency and Mahakam Ulu Regency were carried out in two ways, namely preventive and repressive.
