Deborah Fromm carried out two intensive 6‐month periods of field research supplemented with random visits, always with subsequent fieldnotes writing.…”

“…As we will show, Crackland inhabitants are not put away. Public administrations and non‐governmental organisations have territorialised the ‘Crackland problem’ to ‘solve’ it (Fromm 2017). Their programmes codify the site and inhabitants: they construe them as ‘fixed’ subjects, with an either/or identity (addict / not‐addict) and demarcated spatially (in / outside Crackland).…”

Drugs feature in the geography of crime as an economy and as a threat to social order and public health. Spatial and social strategies of crime reduction ascribe agency to the state and to regulated residents of marginalised urban areas. Geographers also discussed anti‐drug policy have a revanchist neoliberal governance. Through the lens of urban territory and urban nomads in the crack‐cocaine‐dominated area Crackland in the centre of São Paulo, we argue that instead of a fixity of homelessness, drug markets and drug users in the geography of crime, one could pay more attention to nomadism, which can be found ethnographically in the journeys of three agents which we discuss. For over 20 years, city authorities have tried to ‘end’ Crackland with social programmes and police actions, or codifying attempts of territorialisation. An urban impasse emerged as these programmes failed to recognise Crackland as mobile territory of viracao. Crackland remains a zone reserved for the city's ‘human waste’ while perfectly integrated in the urban fabric.

“…Akademisch ausgedrückt: Sie markieren eine Iteration, die sich asymptotisch auf eine "offene Gesellschaft" im Sinne Karl Poppers (1945) hinbewegt. In einer offenen Gesellschaft wäre Macht nicht in irrationalen, diktatorischen Autoritäten gebündelt, sondern dynamisch unter den Menschen verteilt, denn "rationale Autorität hat ihren Ursprung in Kompetenz" (Fromm 2017(Fromm [1947, S. 21) und Kritikfähigkeit.…”

“…Lebendigkeit lässt sich zweitens als eine gewisse Lernprozessqualität bestimmen. ‚Lebendig' heißt dann ‚belebt und belebend; aktiv, sinnlich, abwechslungsreich': "die Forderung nach ‚lebendigen', das heißt: nach abwechslungsreichen, sach-, personen-und situationsangemessenen Lernformaten" (Härle 2011 (Fromm 2017(Fromm [1947) orientiert sich am Menschen per se, sie gebietet nicht nur Ehrfurcht vor sich selbst, sondern vor allen Menschen, mehr noch: "Ehrfurcht gebührt allem Lebendigen" (Cohn 2016, S. 120). Dieses ethische "Axiom" ist fundamental für die Themenzentrierte Interaktion und für "Lebendiges Lernen" nach Cohn (ebd.…”

ZusammenfassungDieser Beitrag ist als Zusammenschau gedacht und widmet sich übergeordneten Fragen dieses Bandes: Welche Menschen und Institutionen betrifft sozioökonomische Hochschullehre? Welche Merkmale und Spannungsfelder kennzeichnen hochschulisches Lernen im Allgemeinen und sozioökonomische Lehre im Besonderen? Aus den vorliegenden Beiträgen wird außerdem das gemeinsame Anliegen lebendigen Lernens identifiziert und nach drei Bestimmungen ausdifferenziert: Nach biographischen, lebensweltlichen Bezügen; nach der sinnlich-ästhetischen Qualität von Lernprozessen und nach der Interaktionsmoral von Lerngruppen. Abschließend werden institutionelle und persönliche Entwicklungslinien einer sozioökonomischen Hochschulbildung aufgezeigt.

“…The State defines and limits where people can or cannot remain according to situational scenarios and interests. These are triage points, from which, according to certain criteria, it is decided who enters and leaves: who may remain, who must be sent on, and to where, following a logic for distribution of people within urban space [16,26,27].…”

The first Brazilian public policies directed at people who make use of alcohol and other drugs focused on criminalization and punishment. In 1932, medicine and its strategies of governmentality began to work within this field. The Penal Code of 1941 brought the ideal of abstinence to the Brazilian public arena, which was then broadly disseminated by the legislation up until 2006, when a new mental health policy began to be implemented for this population. In this chapter, we analyze the tensions between models that focus on care and those that have a safety perspective in programs for users of alcohol and other drugs in the central region of the city of São Paulo. We analyzed public domain documents: documentary material on the legal landmarks of policies; revision of literature; and news in Brazilian media about governmental actions in this area. Results of the analysis indicate that the tension between harm reduction models and the abstinence model persisted in governmental actions over the years. Regarding the central region, there was a diversification in the offer of treatment models and approaches. But these models took form as a market dispute: for sellable goods, employability of professionals, and the interests of the pharmaceutical industry.
