Drugs in Chile
Representation, Market, and Consumption 1900-1970
What were the institutions and voices of Chilean society that debated drug use in Chile? How has the drug been viewed from a historical perspective? In what way has it evolved from dangerous to exotic, from a criminal perspective to a sanitary one? What are the symbolic burdens that society has assigned to it? When reviewing the constitution of drug addictions and their practitioners, the distribution circuits of cocaine, morphine, and marijuana, and when noticing the dynamics of regulation and criminalization of their consumption, the impression remains that what was said and done on the matter was tied to or sought to annex itself to other phenomena, other practices, other social groups. Through the reconstruction and analysis of these and other events, this book explores a series of historical processes that unfolded in 20th-century Chile around the drug market.
