Resumen
CANDIL, Ana Laura. Support intensive drug users: the role of local family networks in outpatient treatments. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2016, n.26, pp.179-196. ISSN 1900-5407. https://doi.org/10.7440/antipoda26.2016.08.
From the results of an investigation led by the ethnographic approach on public outpatient treatments that address intensive drugs users (mainly cocaine's) in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (Argentina), this article focuses on the role of local networks in the task of support the users in everyday life in contexts of scarcity. Specifically, the notion of supporting is define -the difference in the analytical category care-, practices converging on this notion are documented -made by proximity networks in everyday life-, and are exposed some of the therapeutic revisions of that practices. The field work underpinning this article was conducted for two years (2012-2013) in a specialized, interdisciplinary, public, outpatient-based psychotherapies institution, located in a segregated neighborhood of the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires. Production techniques data were participant observations and semi-structured interviews.
