O problema das drogas é um problema do capital: análise dos movimentos antiproibicionistas, uma contribuição para o Serviço Social

Abstract

This dissertation brings a theoretical reflection on the elements and information about the social history of drugs, in a critical, anti-capitalist, anti-prohibitionist and anti-racist analysis in the face of the reflexive determinations of social classes. Although this debate seems to be present in society, it is necessary to understand the processes in which racism and the racialization of humanity that caused a domination of the cultural, political, ideological and economic process of social relations. We seek to analyze the social history of drugs and the profiles of users dependent on psychoactive substances and living in the central region of São Paulo, thereby understanding race relations, public policies on drugs and anti-prohibitionist movements. A critical look through the processes of exploitation and dehumanization of impoverished bodies mainly present in the working class. The elementary questions for this discussion tend to think of the process of racism, colonialism and capitalism in the midst of critical social theory, aiming to understand the elements for the maintenance of capitalist society
