This book presents a reflection by Ricardo Antunes in his book "The Privilege of Servitude" where he highlights the existence of a "Dialectic of Work" exposing the contradiction present in the act of working (since work, while emancipating, also alienates man, and at the same time that it liberates, it also enslaves man) and also presents Norbert Elias' view on paying taxes to the State and this reflection is brought up by Pierre Bourdieu in his book "On the State" where both agreed that paying taxes is extortion and therefore wondered how it is possible for extortion to become legitimate without being perceived as extortion? That's the question!

Karl Marx (2007) will provide the tools to think of marijuana consumption as a commodity stigmatised by the State and point out the criticism of the State as a castrator of the freedom and autonomy of individual users of the herb, reinforcing the opposition of interests between the State (oppressive apparatus) and civil society (composed of social agents capable of contesting and fighting for changes in the current society); Émile Durkheim will provide the tools to think of marijuana consumption as a social fact that causes divergent and antagonistic opinions in the moral consciousness of our society and also in the dynamics of Law, which is always prone to undergo changes in time and space to adapt to the new moral consciousness of society brought and made possible by the emergence and advent of new times; Arthur Schopenhauer (2002) will provide the tools for reflection on the feeling of being imprisoned and the human suffering arising from this confinement; Friedrich Nietzsche (2007) will provide the tools to think about the proposal to legalise marijuana from the questioning of the perpetuation of the moral values of certain types of societies.

This Philosophical study sought to expose in the first and third chapter the following Platonic Dialogues: the first Platonic dialogue is about "Book X - The Laws" dealing with the existing problematic between the belief in the Gods by the wise and the disbelief in the Gods by the ungodly in ancient Greece and sought to expose in the third and last chapter the Platonic dialogue about the Book "Phedon", which deals with Phedon's reflections on the day of Socrates' death, where he narrates Socrates' trust (before dying) in the just Decree of the Gods and finally the book ends by briefly quoting the Philosopher Nietzsche being discordant with the Socratic-Platonic thought; The second chapter deals with Thomas Aquinas' critique against Averroistic thought (who made a big mistake regarding Aristotle's concept of the human intellect, thus fixing the mistake made by Averrois regarding Aristotle's theory).
