Consumos de drogas sintéticas y discursos cerebrales en la movida electrónica de Buenos Aires

(analytical): This article aims to analyze the different ways in which young people attending electronic music events in Buenos Aires use discourses and terminologies related to neuroscience to account for their recreational consumption of synthetic drugs, their forms of sociability and the various approaches they use to understand themselves. Interviews were conducted with an informant and a discussion group was organised with a group of young people who attend electronic music events. The author suggests that the narratives of these young people refer to a somatic cerebral individuality as a form of grammar that makes their processes subjectivization intelligible. However, these references occur in the form of mutations, where different biomedical sources coexist ranging from psychology to the neurosciences. Key words: Drugs, youth, electronic music, Neuroscience (Social Science Unesco-Thesaurus); subjectivity (European Education Thesaurus).
