Drugs and Social Context
This book goes beyond the traditional approaches to drug use and discusses the issue from a societal perspective, integrating contributions from different disciplines such as psychology, public health, anthropology, law, public policies and sociology to address specifically the social aspects of the phenomenon. Given its complexity, drug use demands a multidisciplinary approach from many different perspectives, but despite the vast literature about the topic, the majority of the books are restricted either to a purely medical perspective (focused mainly on treatment techniques) or to a criminological perspective (focused mainly on drug trafficking and organized crime). The social approach ad...
Psychology and Rural Contexts
This book brings together a selection of theoretical reflections, empirical researches and professional experiences to showcase the increasing production of psychological studies in rural contexts developed in Latin America in recent years. Psychology’s tradition of science and eminently urban profession has produced a void of reflections and approaches on important actors of the societies that constitute their existence in rural contexts and in relation – whether of integration, conflicts and contradictions – with urban agents. But a new generation of psychologists are turning their attention to rural contexts, especially in Latin America. This volume aims to present a selection of th...

As experiências sociais de idosos que fazem uso de álcool e outras drogas em municípios de fronteira
O estudo que gerou esta obra teve como finalidade abordar uma temática pouco explorada no Brasil, mas de suma importância visto a crescente expectativa de longevidade da população. O estudo consiste em uma análise que veio a apresentar os fatores motivadores do uso de álcool e outras drogas por idosos, as principais características desses idosos, suas relações com a família, trabalho, servidores dos CAPSad e comunidade, bem como a frequência e adesão dos mesmos no tratamento.
Da pessoa que recai à pessoa que se levanta
"Um passo à frente e você não está mais no mesmo lugar" (Chico Science & Nação Zumbi, 1996). Com a leitura deste livro, você dará um passo à frente na compreensão dos processos que envolvem o consumo de drogas e certamente não estará mais no mesmo lugar! Sobretudo se você for profissional comprometido com o respeito às liberdades e aos direitos humanos e adotar a estratégia de redução de danos para cuidar das pessoas que usam drogas. Quando o mundo vive uma crise civilizatória, onde discursos e práticas de extrema-direita, neofascistas e negacionistas da ciência não espantam mais e são difundidas desavergonhadamente por governantes, pela mídia e por cidadãos comuns, este livro é um manifesto em defesa da solidariedade, da democracia e do respeito ao conhecimento científico. É o gol da vitória aos quarenta e cinco minutos do segundo tempo em uma disputada partida de futebol. Contudo, para ganhar o campeonato, não basta ganhar um jogo. O time, titular e reserva, a comissão técnica, a torcida e a "filosofia" do jogo ganham junto o campeonato. Portanto, é importante jogarmos juntos, coletivamente, fortalecidos por essa bela contribuição de Rossana.
