This paper proposes to articulate an analytical scheme for understanding the use of drugs in advanced societies from the gender perspective and its intersections with other inequality axis such as age, social class, race and ethnicity. These dimensions define not only the access to different substances –in terms of normative and resources- but also the different uses and their social valuation. For this purpose, we expose the main gender dimensions as an analytical category: structural, symbolic and individual. Furthermore, we intend to broaden this view exploring the intra-inter gender differences and inequalities present in the various uses of drugs from an intersectional framework. Our aim is to break with standardised categories in order to project a multidimensional analysis, from which to reflect in how other imbricated differences with gender make possible for women and men to use certain substances, conditioning their social effects.
Este trabajo propone articular un esquema analítico para la comprensión de los usos de drogas en las sociedades avanzadas desde la perspectiva de género y su intersección con otros ejes de desigualdad, como la edad, la clase social, la raza y la etnia, que marcan tanto el acceso a las diferentes sustancias –en términos normativos y de recursos– como sus diferentes usos y valoraciones sociales. Para ello, exponemos las principales dimensiones del género como categoría analítica: estructural, simbólica e individual. A continuación, pretendemos ampliar esta mirada indagando, desde un marco interseccional, en las diferencias y desigualdades inter e intragénero presentes en diversos usos de drogas. Buscamos con esto romper con categorizaciones estandarizadas, para proyectar un análisis multidimensional desde donde reflexionar sobre cómo otras diferencias imbricadas con el género posibilitan que mujeres y hombres hagan determinados usos de sustancias y condicionan sus efectos sociales.
