Sinceramente, prefiro morrer na B.O com mãos esticadas: reprodução do mercado de Cannabis sativa na vila de Moatize, 2017

Abstract

In this work we studied the reproduction of "Cannabis sativa" Market in the village of Moatize. Our objective was to understand the way in which participants of "Cannabis sativa" market create conditions of reproduction of this market. Thus, we argue that both the construction and the reproduction of the Cannabis sativa market depend on the cooperative participation of the seller and the consumer. Our assumption here is that social life revolves around the acquisition of collective action, and this requires that the participants involved in that action be induced to cooperate. The theory used in this work was Neil Flegstein's "Social Skill" that allows us to understand the reproduction of this market from the cooperative participation of the sellers and consumers. In this study, we used a method of qualitative approach, method of hypothetical-deductive procedure and semi-structured interview as a research technique. The data show that reproduction of the market of "Cannabis sativa" is possible through the social skill of sellers and consumers to create the rules for the process of sale and consumption; existence of a reciprocal trust between the participants in the sale and consumption process; the participants cooperate through social networks, sharing of resources and information, mutual protection, etc. to achieve the common objective which is the local order (favourable conditions for the continuity of sale and consumption).
