Uso ritual de alucinógenos y medicina psicodélica: Articulaciones alrededor del uso clínico de la ayahuasca en Brasil

Quaderns de l Institut Català d Antropologia October 24, 2023 Genís Ona 2 citations

In Brazil, ayahuasca is used in clinical settings without the psychotherapeutic models that typically guide subjective effects in other countries. This creates a complex intersection between clinical use, Indigenous and religious community practices, and the dominant therapeutic frameworks built around hallucinogens. The text discusses how these different uses and relationships interact, highlighting the unique Brazilian context where no specific psychotherapeutic orientations or techniques for directing subjective experience are employed.
