The paper presents some findings of a wider research on the transformation of crime in Sardinia and it considers the cultivation of cannabis from a sociological standpoint. The aim is to reflect on the illegal use of vast rural areas, through the theoretical approaches of sociology of territory, both as regards the shift of increasing areas into places of informal and illegal economy, and as regards the transformation of individual and group behaviors related to this illegal practice.

Keywords: Cannabis, Territory, Crime, Sardinia, Illegal Use, Social Control.
