Abstract:

Brazilian drug policies have undergone changes over time, bearing marks for each historical period and experienced sanitary-political interests. Nowadays, an anti-reformist character was perceived in changes concentrated on Law nº 13,840, of June 5, 2019. The aim of this study is to analyze the key elements of a normative document on drugs based on Critical Discourse Analysis. We analyzed the Law 13,840 using Fairclough’s method for three-dimensional analisys and then discussed it with Foucault’s notions of Biopower and Biopolitics. We consider that the empashis on involuntary hospitalization, therapeutic communities and abstinence opposes the brazilian psychiatric reform movement. The development of oppressive care practices are hidden by so-called ideological neutrality and scientific evidence.
