¿Por qué esto no está en los libros de historia? (Antonio Escohotado)

Antonio Escohotado explores fear as the central theme of his philosophy, connecting the aversion to psychoactive drugs with communism, from ancient origins to modern prohibitions. He analyzes pain, historical crusades such as those against witches, and advocates for historical knowledge to overcome ignorance, legalization, and individual responsibility. 0:24 - Welcome to Antonio Escohotado in Colombia 0:39 - Presentation: Philosophical books and an encyclopedia on drugs 1:11 - Project on trade, aversion, and human fear 2:19 - The connection between drugs and communism via fear of oneself and others 3:40 - Pain as the origin of fear; Epicurus and pleasure without pain 5:51 - Crusades against drugs and property generate more pain 6:49 - Human history with drugs: opium since 2300 BC 7:55 - Antiquity: Fear of alcohol in Greece and Rome 8:22 - The tragedy of The Bacchae and the prohibition of wine 9:41 - Acclimatization of alcohol vs. Opium without problems 10:27 - Opium Wars and Chinese xenophobia 11:12 - Beginning of modern prohibition in 1911 11:38 - Definition of drug: mood alteration, prodigy, and scapegoat 12:37 - Availability in pharmacies until 1900 13:15 - Proletarians and opium/morphine consumption in the Industrial Revolution 14:20 - Crusade against witches: magic and psychoactive substances 15:47 - Ancient communion with psychoactive hosts 16:41 - Renaissance and resurgence of witchcraft 17:47 - Witches' ointments with nightshades 19:37 - Historical amnesia and persecution encourages the persecuted 20:27 - Resurrection of science vs. Medieval Persecution 22:09 - Neutral Drugs: Moralization Leads to Persecution 23:29 - Cartels as the Creator of Prohibition 24:18 - Silent Decline of the War on Drugs 25:32 - Harm Reduction in Civilized Countries 26:18 - Marijuana Legalization in the US and Uruguay 27:01 - Criminalization Encourages Crime and Death 27:29 - Optimism: The US Will Loosen Prohibition 29:13 - Addict vs. Junkie: Responsibility vs. Alibi 29:53 - Freedom as Awareness of Need 31:00 - History as a Tool Against Ignorance 32:18 - Personal Change After Studying Drugs and Communism 34:19 - Planning vs. Market: Imaginary Simple vs. Real Complicated 35:22 - Legalization Does Not Contradict Liberalism 36:20 - Market: Autonomy of Will; Planning: Understocked Storehouse 38:27 - Social Classes vs. Social classes: mobility and trade 40:12 - Hatred of merit since the Sermon on the Mount 42:43 - Scientific Communism: earthly paradise as hell 43:47 - Appetite for unreality and the failure of utopias 45:05 - Natural chemistry vs. artificial paradises 45:42 - Freedom and responsibility vs. whim 47:05 - Intelligence over will in history 49:23 - Capitalism triumphs with bad press 50:18 - Deaths in the early USSR 51:05 - Communist leaders: unemployed young gentlemen 52:49 - Origin of the Roman proletariat 54:57 - Marx: personal fury in theory 56:14 - Chávez-Ahmadinyad embrace: common enemy of free trade Official channel for the global dissemination of the thought of Antonio Escohotado, managed by his third son, Jorge, and his namesake, Melero.
