RIBEIRO, Cynara Teixeira  e  NASCIMENTO, Zaeth Aguiar do. Racism, Violence and the Drug Issue in Brazil: Faces of Segregation. Rev. Subj. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.spe2, pp.1-12. ISSN 2359-0769.  https://doi.org/10.5020/23590777.rs.v20iesp2.e8975.

It is a theoretical article in which we reflect on the current events in the field of care for people who use alcohol and other drugs in Brazil, articulating them to the themes of racism, violence, and segregation. From the Freudian and Lacanian framework, it is contextualized how the issue of the use of alcohol and other drugs has been treated within the scope of Brazilian public policies, especially from what became known as psychiatric reform. The device of compulsory hospitalization is also discussed, because of the visibility it has acquired in recent years as it has been presented by some segments of the State as an alternative aimed at certain users, notably those who live in regions known as cracolândias. Such discourses and practices, which promote social exclusion and isolation, are associated with the notion of the shock of enjoyment as a basic principle of racism, which is linked to contemporary biopolitics and the capitalist's discourse. Based on these discussions, the place of psychoanalysis and the training of the analyst in the 21st century is considered, its challenges and developments, articulating itself clinically and politically in the proposition of a possible direction to face contemporary segregation: sustaining the one by one, operating twists where the segregative logic of everyone prevails against one.
