ABSTRACT
stance dependence has stressed the need to give up the deviant identity
and lifestyle. However, addiction careers, crime, and other types of de-
viant behavior require a wide range of skills. Such competence may
facilitate the alternative or simultaneous pursuit of “respectable” careers
in treatment, prevention, research, or policy matters. Former alcoholics
fill important positions in the service structures of Alcoholics Anony-
mous, current or former users are appreciated as partners in AIDS pre-
vention programs, and drug addicts can become privileged-access inter-
viewers and be recruited by research institutes. The paper discusses
“market conditions” that favor or impede career shifts. How society and
professionals perceive individuals with a history of stigma varies from
complete rejection to admiration or recognition of usefulness. This as-
sessment depends on such factors as degree of political and scientific
interest in controlling, changing, and detecting hidden deviant popula-
tions, as well as public fascination with “authentic” deviants, combined
with increasing scepticism about conventional expert knowledge.

Most people hope to have learned from their past, from their negative and
positive experiences, to help them for their future, but few believe that this also
holds true of criminals, addicts, and other deviants. These are expected to distance
themselves completely from their previous lives in deep repentance, to abandon

lead to role conflict-an aspect that so far has not been described or analyzed
in this context.

ground, with examples from various countries. It also speculates on societal con-
ditions that favor or impede respectable careers, such as changing public opin-
ion, or a lessening of the stigma attached to “drug abuse,” or the interest of
governments in formulating well-informed policies on the control of drug use.
Career choices and career mobility will first depend, inter alia, on the gen-
eral state of the labor market, expectations of the addict, and specific recruitment
strategies. On the supply side, the subjective evaluation of intrinsic job incentives,
knowledge of job opportunities, and an appraisal of the opportunity costs of
changing careers come into play (e.g., Toman and Savickas, 1997).
More specifically, the following theoretical dimensions are used as a basis

Treatment
Former addicts as helpers or therapists are probably the most common ex-
amples of the professionalization of a career in addiction. They represent a no-
table share of the staff of counseling services and inpatient institutions in the treat-
ment systems of many countries. In Switzerland, for example, 29% of the
drug-user-treatment facilities reported having employed former drug-users
(Muhle, 1994). This percentage is much higher in countries where treatment ser-
vices are mostly privately owned and treatment resources are scarce. In general,

surviving incest, and this creates career opportunitiesfor other recovering patients
besides former alcoholics.
These examples suggest promising career avenues for former addicts in treat-
ment. However, unless they are self-employed or in treatment facilities that they
have themselves set up, they are subject to working conditions imposed by pro-
fessional gatekeepers. Thus, though recovering alcoholics hold key positions in

ering xy” is equivalent to loss of the job. The functioning of an ex-addict faced
with the demands of a paid job are precarious: Exposure of ex-addicts as thera-
pists to the conditions of their former drug lives, combined with the continuous
availability of drugs, can destabilize their lives if they cannot draw upon some
professional safeguards. The integration of specific skills and abilities acquired
during the deviant career into the new professional role can be more or less suc-
cessful as narrative material from a Swiss “natural” recovery study illustrates.
Case 66, recovered for four years from problem heroin-use, worked for
several years as a helper in a harm-reduction programme before leav-
ing it: “I changed my job because the daily professional contact with the
fixer drug scene became closer and closer. . . images of the past came
back . . . being permanently confronted with drugs and current users the
temptation to resume increased . . . I had phantasies of going back to the
heroin, and became afraid of losing control.”
Case 214 trained as a drug counselor and began work in a therapeu-
tic community. He uses successfully his previous experiences as a
junkie: “Clients just cannot deceive me. I know them too well and if they
smuggle sugar into the house I simply can sense it because there is still
something that connects me with the patients.” At the same time he rec-
ognizes “earlier at some times I would have been lost without my train-
ing as a drug counselor. . . I was a different person then as a heroin

dismissal of employees who gave up drug use after beginning work? (Palmer,
1992/93; Burrows, 1993: 9).
The case of the New South Wales Association shows that, as long as spe-
cial access and insider know-how are needed, current users can still be employed
on condition that they agree to maintain their level of expertise by continuous
drug-use and integration into subcultural target groups. However, it is not quite
clear whether, in the long run, drug users will be used only as tokens when pro-
fessionals are gradually taking over, and what will be the future of this job mar-
ket in different parts of the world. In Western European countries, peer support
as a method of risk reduction, or outreach-assisted peer-support models, are be-
ing promoted more and more. In Germany, government support for the inclusion
of users in AIDS prevention efforts is under discussion; the European Peer Sup-
port Project, launched in six countries, organizes training courses for drug users
and professionals, develops methods and models of outreach work for and by drug
users, and provides guidelines on “how to set up a self-organization for and by
users” (Trautmann, 1995). These jobs are clearly less attractive than the Austra-
lian “ideal type career” discussed earlier: “current drug user-voluntary helper
for the user organization-paid part-time outreach worker-representative as an
active user on a governmental committee.” It remains to be seen whether the
stronger influence of official health policymakers and planners and health-care
professionals will also ensure funding schemes that are more stable (and there-

fore a more stable job situation for deviants active in these projects) than those
provided in response to the more independent, politically less convenient, user
organizations.

in touch with the project researcher, and the community guide orientates and
guides researchers through specific areas and networks and explains functions and
locations. While these activities resemble those of the cultural broker-but car-

search goals.
The range of potential roles in research for former or current drug users is
impressive at first sight; however, a number of pros and cons have come to light
from experience in indigenous fieldwork.
Extrinsicjob satisfaction: The activities mentioned above require at best only
part-time work, with the employment rights and benefits of full-time staff or
staff on permanent contracts, except for the indigenous observer who would
benefit from contract employment on a continuous basis. However, as
Griffiths et al. (1993: 1622) point out, “many interviewers would not wish
to have a permanent or more time-consuming relationship with our organi-
zation. Their commitments and lifestyles often made full-time or long-term
employment unattractive.”
Intrinsic job satisfaction is relatively high among indigenous field-workers;
For personal use only.
The overall rating of this career sector tends to be rather positive; career
instability, low pay, and high occupational risks are balanced by flexibility of
employment schedules, the occupational prestige of being in touch with science,
intrinsic rewards, and support for career shifts. Its future depends largely on de-
mand for qualitative research in general and interest in program evaluation in
particular.
or with “colleagues,” peers, or teams). Best and Luckenbill (1994: 12,61) men-
tioned large street gangs, outlaw motorcycle clubs, organized mafia-crime fami-
lies, and drug distribution networks as examples of highly differentiated career
patterns in which a member starts out as a “runner,” moves up to the positions
of “controller,” “district controller,” “manager,” “banker,” and so on. Expressed
more generally: “a deviant formal organization may have special departments for
planning, processing goods, public relations and rule enforcement, with positions
for strategists, coordinators, accountants, lawyers, enforcers and dealers in illicit
goods” (Best and Luckenbill, 1994: 54). Our knowledge of career characteristics,
mobility, and career shifts is very limited for the obvious reason of the clandes-
tine nature of these organizations. But, even more important, apart from the more
“practical” reason of difficult field-access, is the stigma that the political estab-
lishment attaches to drug dealing as an incarnation of evil which has discredited
and discouraged-at least to some extent-a more analytical and objective de-
scription and evaluation of career avenues in this domain. This is almost ironi-
cal if one considers evidence that organized crime has gained a symbiotic posi-
tion within many political jurisdictions, and the dividing line between
“respectable” and deviant careers becomes more and more blurred. Lupsha’ s
analysis of the industry in Mexico shows that transnational organized crime and
narco power are attempting to operate directly in public and private sector board-
rooms with cabinet level staff and secretaries to plan and coordinate activities for
mutual benefits, development, and free trade (Lupsha, 1995). Recent books on

transnational organized crime and the illicit drug industry (Clawson and Lee 111,
1996; Stares, 1996) provide interesting insights into the “global drug market” and
its changing modes of operation (e.g., decentralization of the Andean cocaine
industry) but fail to describe the occupational mobility and career lines of the
individual actors systematically.
The work of Adler and Adler (1983: 196, 197) on dealing and smuggling as

tive livelihoods. The first two points address the effects of a full-time, long-last-
ing deviant career. The enjoyment of power, sex, and money comes at the cost
of increasing professional fatigue when aging in the career: “The frenzy of
overstimulation and resulting exhaustion hastened the process of burnout. . . as
dealers aged in the career they became more sensitized to the extreme risks they
faced.” The work of Morgan and Joe (1996: 137) on women in the illicit drug
economy illustrates the role of professional commitment, pride, and “ethics” (e.g.,
selling only high-quality drugs, protection of the home environment) and points
to the incorporation of control as a dealing strategy: “For many women (amphet-
amine) dealers. . . the illicit drug business . . . allowed them to choose their
friends, to control their lifestyle, and to maximize their talents relative to their
resources.” In this case, though the drug-dealing careers of these women spanned
several decades, their integration into a normal lifestyle seemed to counterbal-
ance the bum-out described earlier and lowered the pressure to give up the devi-
ant career altogether.
As to the third factor in the phasing out of deviant careers-the availability
of alternative careers-the early study by Adler and Adler (1983) based on the
situation in the late 1970s showed that when trying to give up their deviant ca-
reers, dealers and smugglers either returned to occupations they had previously
pursued or changed their front business, maintained on the side while dealing, into
a legal main business, or took up entirely new occupations: dealers “exchanged
1516 KLINGEMA”
their illegal commodity for a legal one and went into import/export, wholesaling,
or retailing merchandise” (p. 203).
Today a few new career lines for dealers have emerged, e.g., becoming a
successful cannabis dealer. Like the field of advocacy and prevention, these ca-
reer lines are also connected with changes in general drug policy, as the example
of the Netherlands shows.
Subst Use Misuse Downloaded from informahealthcare.com by ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences on 02/17/13
of such careers depends on the course that drug-control policies will take. If, as
with cannabis, the push toward legalization continues, markets will also be nor-
malized and the subcultural knowledge or wisdom of deviance will become su-
perfluous. Consequently, drug users would have only a slight chance of obtain-
ing positions in future state drug/alcohol monopolies, while familiarity with
customer preferences in the retail business might still complement a good pro-
fessional training in marketing.

further career shifts and facilitate giving up the deviant career have to be system-
atically pursued. Double careers can be interesting for deviants who do not want
to give up their lifestyle but nevertheless wish to maintain links with the “nor-
mal” working world. They benefit from a basic income and flexible working
arrangements, appreciation on the part of the employer, and access to useful in-
formation on treatment and health services. Examples of partially failed attempts
to move permanently under objectively good conditions to respectable careers
from the areas of treatment and entertainment have been presented and discussed
with respect to the notion of a subjective career.
The future development of career opportunities in the various fields will
depend mainly on 1) changing legal and social definitions of specific types of
deviance, 2) the appreciation of “insider life experience” vs “organized expert
knowledge,” and 3) the discussion on public health and policy.
For personal use only.
1. How deviance is dealt with in the public arena will favor or impede career
shifts and the possible marketing of deviant experience. Countries differ
greatly as regards fear of crime and the condemnation of drug use as evil.
These general societal conditions can discredit or encourage efforts to estab-
lish careers for deviants-for instance, in advocacy (positive example,
Australia) or treatment. Data from studies on natural recovery from problem
substance use point out that even after quitting, spontaneous remitters are still
often seen as unstable and prone to relapse. In a Swiss study it was shown
that subjects who successfully gave up heroin use suffered in subsequent
years much more from negative, nonsupportive reactions of their social en-
vironment than an alcohol comparison group. Follow-up data showed, on the
contrary, that heroin cases proved to be much more stable than alcohol cases,
who demonstrated a much higher relapse rate (Klingemann, 1992: 1996).
This illustrates how problem-specific patterns of societal discrimination in-
teract with coping styles and points out strains from “the public climate of
opinion” for the careers and lifestyle options of the “professional ex.”
2 . The evaluation of “insider life experience” vs “organized expert knowledge”
is also subject to change. A tendency by professionals in the field to require
formal training in addition to the deviant experience to qualify as an addic-
tion counselor can serve as an example of the partial depreciation of personal
experience in deviance. Besides, the belief that the personal deviant experi-
ence leads to a unique understanding and knowledge of the target group,
ADDICTION CAREERS AND CAREERS IN ADDICTION 1519
sponsor mainly ex-addicts careers in line with the prevailing treatment phi-
losophy (e.g., abstinence: 12-Step). At the same time, the complex “field”
of “deviant” treatment demands which are not in line with the current para-
digm is left to ex-addicts and private organizations, often “ghettoized’ and
kept at a distance from conventional society. Recent decisions in the United
States not to use federal funding for harm reduction activities on the local
level reflect this “double-standard’’ as well.
Seen from a broader perspective, countries which adopt a whole range
of treatment objectives and programs (see the overview of Klingemann and
Hunt, 1998) will open up a wide variety of careers for ex-addicts, but these
careers are subject to different types of strain. In many countries the grow-
ing importance of private ownership in drug-user-treatment in general has
triggered a wide discussion on the “quality of care.” Professionals are con-
cerned about the cheaper and more dynamic competition from the private
sector which also includes the creative use of ex-addicts and their deviant
expertise. This illustrates structural limits to the transfer of the various my-
thologies about the unique abilities of the visible abstinent-for-now lay thera-
pists.
3. In the discussion on career fields, the public-health and policy discourse
proved highly influential in the acceptance and use of deviant expertise.
Outreach programs in AIDS prevention and the broad programs of user
groups depend decisively on the harm-reduction model and a more general
1520 KLIN GEMANN
policy aimed at the definition and exploration of the social worlds of alco-
hol and illicit-drug use among hidden populations.
Only as long as there is political interest in gaining access to and influ-
encing subcultures and deviant groups will insider knowledge from these
worlds be valued and “indigenous scouts” needed. Moreover, the idea of
making deviant (“hard to reach”) hidden populations visible, so that they may

be counted and educated with the paid help of members of these same tar-
get groups, conveys the notion of political control. It basically raises the is-
sue of work ethics for addicts. Fitzgerald borrows in this context Michel
Foucault’s metaphor of the “gaze of power,” derived from the panopticon,
a circular prison which allows a single guard in the center to observe all in-
mates simultaneously (Foucault, 1979: 258). He discusses the role that de-
viant populations can play in this situation. Selling their deviant expertise on
the labor market and pursuing one or several of the careers discussed in this
paper, they ultimately would participate in the gaze of power. This could limit
choice of behavior or lifestyle but also help to avoid negative consequences
of drug use, which may not be in the interest of the public health authorities
and the illicit-drug user. The alternative would be resistance to the gaze of
power: drug users would choose not to participate in any kind of research or
cooperation with public or control agencies, even in professional or semipro-

fessional roles (Fitzgerald, 1996: 16, 17). This potential conflict becomes
most visible and concrete in regard to advocacy, as discussed earlier. Aus-
tralian user organizations fear losing their status if they no longer have a role
in combating AIDS and conclude that the government would not permit them
to play an influential role in policy formulation. Other instances, such as the
case of prisoner unions in Scandinavia fighting €or fundamental changes in
the prison system in the 1970s (Papendorf, 1977), have equally shown that
conformity with the political mainstream is another condition for
professionalizing deviant careers.
Future research needed includes the following.
Studies on the impact of two-world lifestyles on current or ex-deviants pro-
