| description | This paper aims to enquire into the relationship between, on the one hand, the phenomenon of
addiction; on the other, the use of psychotropic substances. This enquiry is carried out
following Peter Sloterdijk’s (Karlsruhe, 1947) analysis concerning a medial and historical
anthropology of the question of ascetic movements and production of ecstasies. This leads
us, firstly, to put into question the relationship between use of drugs and issues of addiction
within premodern societies. Secondly, to detect other, non-drug-related modes of
producing addiction within contemporary socioeconomic system. While drug
consumption was formerly an institutionalised vehicle to elicit social synthesis, nowadays
it seems like addition has become viral and is encouraged and designed by our own mode
of existence. |
