“…Na segunda metade do século XIX, o uso abusivo de álcool passou a ser considerado uma "doença social", pois além de atingir organicamente o indivíduo que o consumia, o álcool em seu uso excessivo atingia também as esferas social e moral, pois o indivíduo ébrio não poderia cumprir suas funções na sociedade e teria sua produtividade afetada (Santos & Verani, 2010).…”

The use of psychoactive substances has always been present in society (in a recreational, therapeutic or religious way). The addiction to these substances, in turn, has been more and more present in the media and in political-social discussions that try to understand the phenomenon. Cultural, social, economic, pharmacological and psychological aspects must be considered when theories and treatment actions are proposed. This work investigates the main theoretical conceptions about drug addictions in the psychoanalysis field. It also analyzes their theoretical paths. It highlights the main concepts that underlie the theories, refines divergences and convergences, verifies their evolution from the emergence of new perspectives and verifies the influence of the social context to them. In order to understand the context in which these theories were elaborated, a survey of the history of drug use and treatment of drug addicts was made throughout history. Moreover, the main theoretical concepts in psychoanalysis were investigated through a bibliographical analysis of works in both classic and contemporary authors. The main basic concepts for the theories found were highlighted and analyzed. As a result, some theoretical biases were identified, from narcissism, identification, destructiveness, repetition compulsion and object relations, for instance. There were also variations in psychopathological status, classified as symptom, structure, condition, among others. Finally, it was noted that despite the disagreements, the use of toxic substances predominates as an attempt to relieve anguish, even if the psychotropic medication has harmful consequences.

The purpose of this article is to present an historical account of an intersection that occurred in Brazil between popular healing treatments and conventional psychiatric practices during the first half of the 20th century. To illustrate our argument, we analyzed data retrieved from the medical records of patients admitted to the Spiritist Sanatorium of Uberaba, Brazil, between 1934 and 1948. Although the Uberaba Spiritist movement founded the institution, it was directed by a physician educated in the biomedical tradition at the Rio de Janeiro School of Medicine. Based on the theory of the circulation and appropriation of knowledge, we elucidated the adaptations and negotiations that were necessary for the reception and dissemination of the practice of the two different therapeutic methodologies on Brazilian psychiatric soil.

Alcoholismo y degeneración en el Manicomio Departamental de Antioquia, Colombia (1920-1930)

En este artículo se analizan 159 historias clínicas de pacientes con diagnósticos relacionados al consumo de alcohol en el Manicomio Departamental de Antioquia entre 1920 y 1930. En esa década se inició una transformación institucional con la llegada a la dirección del Dr. Lázaro Uribe Calad. Además fue muy discutido entre médicos y políticos el lugar del alcoholismo como causa determinante de la degeneración racial. En los escritos médicos se evidencia una preocupación constante debido a las terribles consecuencias que podía traer el elevado consumo de alcohol en la sociedad. Sin embargo, en la revisión exhaustiva de fuentes como las estadísticas anuales del Manicomio y las historias clínicas, encontramos que la práctica clínica refleja otra realidad. Se concluye que la cantidad de pacientes que fueron diagnosticados como alcohólicos o cuya etiología estuvo vinculada con la bebida, fueron muy inferiores a los señalados por los médicos. Dichos ingresos respondieron principalmente a problemas de orden moral y social, mas no a cuestiones propiamente psiquiátricas.
