摘要：The author conveys his reflections on the symbolic aspects and ritual character of the therapeutic communities of rehabilitation of alcoholics, known as “Alcoholic Anonymous” (AA). He did ethnographic fieldwork among AA communities of Ciudad Victoria, in Tamaulipas, northern Mexico. These communities, facing a problem often neglected by both government and society in Mexico, yet holding a position of subalternity and marginality in the country, offer a spiritual way out to those alcoholics who approach them. Their activities are of interest for a discussion of ritual in current contexts. In addition, the communities are illuminating for many of the key aspects of the comparative ethnographic analysis of ritual.
