- 요약This dissertation is an ethnographic and genealogical study of the governance of so-called "problem drug-use" in contemporary England. It is based on fieldwork conducted during a time when British policymakers were trying to reorient the English drug treatment system towards "recovery"-which they understood as a personal journey towards "freedom" enabled by the accumulative circulation of "recovery capital" -and away from harm reduction and "maintenance" approaches, which, according to these policymakers, "parked" drug users on opioid substitute prescriptions "without an expectation of their lives changing." Building on my prior experience as the administrator of a methadone prescribing service in London, I spent a year interviewing nurses, social workers, doctors, receptionists, service managers, and other front-line workers in the drug treatment system and related health and social care services, conducting focus groups with clients of these same services, and attending a variety of professional development, care coordination, and administrative meetings and conferences related to the drug treatment system.Focusing in particular on community substance misuse services-state-contracted services which provide opioid substitute prescriptions alongside "psychosocial" care, and are often run by partnerships of NGOs and NHS trusts-I approach drug treatment in England as a site of reflexive governance, by which I mean that my interlocutors are both agents of governance, employed by the state to intervene in the lives of illicit drug users, and targets of governmental intervention in their own right. Thus, while an institution such as a community drug service may appear to be a coherent, singular governmental institution, I attempt to tease out differences between various practices and discourses of governance-of both self and others-that criss-cross these sites of reflexive governance. Over the course of this, I develop the concepts of relational and reflexive labor, and I argue, drawing on the work of Michel Serres, that, under conditions of reflexive governance, the latter takes on a parasitical relation to the former. Ultimately at stake in the question of reflexive governance, I argue, are the gift of time given and the forms of value ascribed to subjects of governance.
