Abstract

Systematizing four marijuana’s attention cycles in Brazil, we identified some key players and tried to expose economic, therapeutic, racist and geo-strategic controversies that crossed the history of this plant in this territory. Finally, we showed that the diversification of interests and the emergence of new people interested in this subject configure the existence of a “public problem” whose solution demands significant innovations.
