MDMA y otras sustancias psicodélicas: ¿qué conlleva el acceso legal?

3 febrero 2016

En una mesa redonda celebrada en la Conferencia Internacional por la Reforma de las Políticas de Drogas 2015, expertos en sustancias psicodélicas discutieron sobre la ciencia de los psicodélicos, la psicoterapia asistida con MDMA y la posibilidad de que los psicodélicos estén disponibles legalmente con fines médicos. Más información, en inglés, está disponible abajo.

Criminalization of drug use needs to end, and marijuana legalization has provided one pathway to that. Public and political support for legalizing other drugs is low – so in what other ways can we end criminalization and create legal access for MDMA and other psychedelic drugs? What would a medical model look like? Would a spiritual model using approved guides work for something like ayahuasca? What about licensing users or specific venues? And would any of these models show promise for drugs with addiction potential like cocaine, methamphetamine or heroin?
