O presente artigo propõe uma reflexão em torno do conceito de reinserção social de indivíduos que se tornaram dependentes de drogas, com o objetivo de oferecer uma contribuição na construção de políticas públicas sobre drogas capazes de fazer frente a este importante problema de saúde pública na contemporaneidade. Além dos aspectos conceituais da reinserção social, discutimos seus pressupostos e objetivos; seu contexto sempre atravessado pelas complexidades e singularidades características da dependência de drogas; aspectos tais como abstinência, riscos de recaídas, desconstrução e reconstrução de estilos de vida; o caráter multidisciplinar e a necessidade do trabalho continuado e metódico, no curto, médio e longo prazos, exigindo a cooperação de distintos agentes e sujeitos implicados nos desafios da reinserção social. Abstract: In this paper, we propose an analysis about the concept of social reinsertion of individuals who have become drug addicts. We want to help in planning public actions about drugs which can face this important public health problem nowadays. Apart from the conceptual aspects of social reinsertion, we hereby discuss its proposals, objectives and its context which is permanently affected by the complexities and peculiarities of drug dependency; aspects such as withdrawal, the risk of relapse, deconstruction and reconstruction of lifestyles; its multidisciplinary character and the need for continuous and methodical short-, mid- and long-term work, requiring the cooperation of those specific agents and subjects implied within the challenges of social reinsertion.
