Abstract: | In Great Britain, public drukennes has become common because of the night-time economy. This study is a dialectic review of the 'binge drinking'. The connections between aesthetic processes aimed at encouraging alcohol-related excitement and excess, and those seeking to exert a measure of rational control over the drinking, is discussed. According to the study, the logic of market is the main factor infroming governmental policy on alchol. |
