Resumo: This article aims to investigate the meanings attributed by psychiatrists and judges to the Brazilian legislation on marijuana. The text is based on qualitative research from in-depth individual interviews. A total of four psychiatrists and six judges who work in the cities of Petrolina, Pernambuco, and Juazeiro, Bahia, the largest cities in the region popularly known as Polígono da Maconha [Marijuana Polygon]. The analysis draws on Clifford Geertz’s interpretive anthropology. The conclusions point out that the practices of cultivation, consumption, and sale of marijuana, in relation to which these professionals need to position themselves, reflect the broad symbolic structures that are constitutive of their fields of action: law and psychiatry. In these structures, the legal regulation of marijuana is mostly based on prohibitionism, with a priori undetermined and deteriorating consequences for the national system of justice, police, and health. The magistrates were more critical of the current legislation on this matter and favorable to its reform.

O texto decorre de pesquisa qualitativa baseada em entrevistas individuais em profundidade. Foram entrevistados quatro psiquiatras e seis juízes atuantes nas cidades de Petrolina, Pernambuco, e Juazeiro, Bahia, as maiores cidades da região popularmente conhecida como Polígono da Maconha. A análise se baseia na antropologia interpretativa de Clifford Geertz. As conclusões apontam que as práticas de cultivo, consumo e comércio de maconha, em relação às quais esses profissionais precisam se posicionar, refletem as amplas estruturas simbólicas que são constitutivas de seus campos de atuação: o direito e a psiquiatria. Nessas estruturas, impera, sobre a maconha, uma lei determinada e proibitiva, com consequências a priori indeterminadas e deterioradoras do sistema nacional de justiça, polícia e saúde. Os magistrados se mostraram mais críticos em relação à legislação atual sobre essa matéria e favoráveis à sua reforma.Dilemas2024-02-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/dilemas/article/view/5618910.4322/dilemas.v17.n.1.56189Dilemas - Revista de Estudos de Conflito e Controle Social; Vol. 17 No. 1 (2024): JAN/FEV/MAR/ABR; e56189Dilemas – Revista de Estudos de Conflito e Controle Social; Vol. 17 Núm. 1 (2024): JAN/FEV/MAR/ABR; e56189Dilemas - Revista de Estudos de Conflito e Controle Social; v. 17 n. 1 (2024): JAN/FEV/MAR/ABR; e561892178-27921983-5922reponame:Dilemas : Revista de Estudos de Conflito e Controle Social (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJporhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/dilemas/article/view/56189/40079Copyright (c) 2024 Ao submeter um texto, autores mantêm os direitos autorais e concedem à DILEMAS - Revista de Estudos de Conflito e Controle Social o direito de primeira publicação, com o trabalho simultaneamente licenciado sob a Licença Creative Commons tipo atribuição BY (CC-BY), que permite o compartilhamento do trabalho com reconhecimento da autoria e publicação inicial nesta revista.
