Abstract

The popularity of drug-sniffing dogs since the 1970s rests on the contributions of a dying technological movement—counterinsurgency science. A comparison of two drug-sniffing dog programs—the Federal Bureau of Narcotics’s detective dog of the 1940s and 1950s, and the Department of Defense’s detector dog of the 1960s and 1970s—documents how federal agents failed to institutionalize drug-sniffing dogs, while Department of Defense researchers succeeded. The disparate outcomes of the two programs illustrate, first, the contingent institutional factors involved in adopting dogs for drug control, and second, the fragile institutional relationships supporting counterinsurgency science and new drug-control strategies after the Vietnam War.
侦探、探测器和毒品嗅探员:平叛前后缉毒犬的制度化
自20世纪70年代以来,毒品嗅探犬的流行依赖于一项正在消亡的技术运动——反叛乱科学的贡献。对两种缉毒犬项目的比较——20世纪40年代和50年代联邦缉毒局的缉毒犬和20世纪60年代和70年代国防部的缉毒犬——记录了联邦特工如何未能将缉毒犬制度化,而国防部的研究人员却成功了。这两个项目的不同结果表明,首先,收养狗用于毒品管制的偶然制度因素;其次,在越南战争后,支持反叛乱科学和新的毒品管制战略的脆弱制度关系。
