Abstract

VASCONCELOS, Michele de Freitas Faria de; SEFFNER, Fernando  and  MELO, Marcos Ribeiro de. “People are more than men”: gender and care in alcohol and other drugs. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2020, vol.36, e75406.  Epub Dec 01, 2020. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.75406.

The text was developed from fragments of a research, in which the production of the field took place in the encounter with bodies organized as of men users of alcohol and other drugs and the health system, more precisely, from a Psychosocial Care Center for Alcohol and other Drugs (Centro de Atenção Psicossocial para Álcool e outras Drogas) - CAPS ad located in the capital of the smallest Brazilian state. Inspired by ethnography and cartography, the study focused on pedagogies of invention from men’s daily lives who are considered to have recurring needs for the use of alcohol and other drugs. It is a research that germinated in a process of composition of a territory of (re)existence to the biopolitical mandate of obedience of (our) bodies to their doing as doped cultural bodies participating in a democracy of subjection to the man-form, subjects of rights. From situations that involve complex negotiations between gender and sexuality pedagogies, men's bodies and the use of alcohol and other drugs, we seek elements to think of a democracy that is an event based on the game of difference.

Keywords : Men; Alcohol and Drugs Everyday Life Pedagogies of gender and sexuality; Invention.
