“Dá pra se livrar do vício em drogas usando outra? Como é que uma substância alucinógena pode tratar da dependência? Ayahuasca é droga? E o usuário em drogas ou álcool pode ficar viciado em ayahuasca? Como é esse tratamento? Ele funciona mesmo?” Essas são apenas algumas das perguntas que surgem imediatamente ao abordar essa temática.

Partindo de um mapeamento bibliográfico e da análise da literatura acadêmica, principalmente a antropológica, empreendo um recorte analítico que privilegia a reconstituição histórica do uso da ayahuasca ao longo de três décadas de debate.

More recently, the...
