作为解释海洛因使用趋势项目的一部分，创建了“开放边缘性”概念，以突出受海洛因流行影响的不同群体如何具有共同的历史经历。阅读美国流行病的历史，连同作者对巴尔的摩地区两种流行病的研究，展示了多年来“处于危险之中”的群体的多样性。这一概念与毒品领域的相关工作相结合，特别是Winick，Singer和Grund的想法，对案例的分析表明，这些群体经历了快速和意外的变化，从而在期望和现实之间打开了一个缺口，这个缺口在国家公共话语中占据了一席之地。
As part of a project to explain heroin use trends, a concept of "open marginality" is created to highlight how different groups impacted by heroin epidemics have a common historical experience. A reading of the history of epidemics in the U.S., together with the authors' work on two epidemics in the Baltimore region, demonstrate the diversity of groups who have been "at risk" over the years. The concept is integrated with related work in the drug field, especially the ideas of Winick, Singer, and Grund, An analysis of cases shows that such groups experience a rapid and unexpected change, such that a gap between expectations and reality opens up, a gap that is taken up in national public discourse.
