Abstract
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.
