Resumen
Se ha definido a las nuevas sustancias psicoactivas como sustancias de uso indebido, ya sea puras o en preparados, que no están fiscalizadas por los tratados internacionales sobre drogas, pero que pueden plantear una seria amenaza a la salud pública. En general, nuevas sustancias psicoactivas es un término genérico que incluye sustancias o productos psicoactivos no reglamentados que tratan de imitar los efectos de drogas sujetas a fiscalización (UNODC, 2013). La penalización ha sido la respuesta globalmente utilizada para ocuparse del problema. Es por ello por lo que se analizarán diferentes modelos de fiscalización adoptados a nivel local y en el derecho comparado: sistema de listas, sistema de grupos químicos y sistema de análogos, así como algunas respuestas alternativas que ha ensayado la jurisprudencia nacional.
New psychoactive substances have been defined as substances of abuse, either pure or in preparations, that are not controlled by international drug treaties, but that may pose a threat to public health. In general, new psychoactive substances is an umbrella term that includes unregulated psychoactive substances or products that attempt to mimic the effects of controlled drugs (UNODC, 2013). Penalty has been the response globally used to address the problem. That is why different control models adopted at the local level and in comparative law will be analyzed: system of lists, system of chemical groups and system of analogs, as well as some alternative responses that national jurisprudence has tried.
