Should addiction to drugs (or gambling, food) be viewed as a disease and therefore be treated therapeutically
Paper details
Should addiction to drugs (or gambling, food) be viewed as a disease and therefore be treated therapeutically, or is it more accurate to view it as a moral failure or the results of poor decision making and therefore be punished. Would it be ethical to force people into addiction treatment programs against their wishes, even if those therapies include pharmacotherapies.
