The current research work examines how ritual practices and spirituality contribute to
recovering addicts from a community located in the central region of Ecuador. The case of
the group "Vencer" is studied in the framework. This group is formed by recovering addicts
to whom ethnographic interviews have been done as well as and participant observations in
order to analyze their testimonies and encounters which are the the soul of this
investigation.
This work was been organized into three chapters. In the first chapther the definition of
addiction is provided. The history of drug and alcohol is also mentioned as well as the
relation between them and the diferent types of addictions which are mostly accepted
within societies. The focus of the research is directed to the addictions that have a higher
percentage of recovering addicts in the group in which the study was conducted. It also
shows how alcoholism is being framed on the senses of human beings, their psychological,
social and cultural meanings, not just for alcoholics and their families, but also for the
society which keeps its different individual and subjectivities shapes as a whole . |
