Introduction to Hearing Voices and Other Matters of the Mind
In the book Hearing Voices and Other Matters of the Mind, McCauley and Graham present a novel contribution to the Cognitive Science of Religion. The authors propose a naturalistic, pluralistic, and interdisciplinary approach to analyze the continuities between normal cognition, religious cognition, and abnormal cognition. McCauley and Graham use the idea of maturationally natural systems to understand different religious “abnormal” experiences: h…
Modern Buddhism and its Cultural Translations. Reflections from a Qualitative Case Study of Two European Zen Monks
Buddhism has expanded around the world as a variety of schools and branches. In Western countries, the encounter between modernity and Buddhism has resulted in a heterogenic cultural product called ‘Modern Buddhism.’ For several authors, it is a recent invention, quite different from ‘Traditional Buddhism.’ But is Modern Buddhism an exception in the history of Buddhism? The current article critically reflects on this question, using the notion of…
La funcionalidad política de la “ciencia” prohibicionista
This article analyzes the use of science as a political tool in prohibitionist logic, adopting an externalist perspective. Prohibitionism strives to have its political-moral precepts be considered scientific, that is, the result of an ideologically neutral research process. The article analyzes the case of cannabis and psychedelics to show how prohibitionism has only resorted to "science" to hide its political-moral agenda, while ignoring the res…
Personality Traits in Former Spanish Substance Users Recovered with Ayahuasca

One of its common applications is for the treatment of addiction. The current study is an assessment of the impact of ayahuasca on personality traits in former su…
Medical anthropology and symbolic cure
The perspectives of medical anthropology on symbolic cure are crucial for understanding placebo mechanisms on the medical agenda. However, while classic biomedical conceptions of the placebo discredited cultural factors as legitimate therapeutic tools, the anthropological critical approach confronted this perspective in the opposite way, rejecting the role of neurobiological factors, and using culture as a self-contained phenomenon. This manuscri…

Ayahuasca from Peru to Uruguay
Ayahuasca is a psychoactive substance from the Amazon rainforest regions of Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and Brazil.

In this paper, we will overview the arrival of ayahuasca in Uru…

In a cut of what would otherwise have been overwhelming, the decision went to address the issue from the classic filiation Tylo…
