This topic had policy significance for US drug policy and a competing US study was funded. The development of the substance use history field is surveyed, and its expansion in recent times through a focused professional association and a critical mass of researchers in the area, covering a wide range of topics. The politics of using history in this area can be problematic. History now sits at the policy table more easily, but there is still a tendency for professionals in the field to use (and misuse) it, rather than calling on the interpretive and challenging approach they would obtain from professional historians. The paper calls for historians and others to move beyond a substance specific focus and to avoid the tendency for 'naive history' implicit in using only digitized industry archives as the sole source.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/add.12903","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,4]],"date-time":"2015-06-04T05:13:29Z","timestamp":1433394809000},"page":"23-26","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["History and its contribution to understanding addiction and society"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"110","author":[{"given":"Virginia","family":"Berridge","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for History in Public Health London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine London UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","first-page":"90","article-title":"Our own opium: cultivation of the opium poppy in Britain, 1740\u20131823","volume":"77","author":"Berridge V.","journal-title":"Br J Addict"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","volume-title":"Opium and the People.
