Romper estigmas. Lugares públicos y lulgares privados.

Abstract

To understand the view of the Hemp and Marijuana Museum in Mexico City about hemp as a renewable resource for food, fuel, biofuels, cosmetics, medicines, lubricants, etc., it is neces sary to address some of the social issues associated with marijuana. In this article, these issues emerge from a life history of the director of the museum and interviews with a group of people who visited the museum. These narratives were analyzed from an anthropological approach and the theory of social representations. Briefly describing the components involved in the axes of this article will allow us to deepen in the particularity of the proposal of the only museum about cannabis in Mexico.
