<h3>What is alienation?</h3>
Alienation is a sociological term that refers to the conception of the process by which an individual becomes someone alien to himself, who is strange, who has lost control over himself.
The concept of alienation has evolved throughout history and has had different interpretations depending on the context and control institutions of different times. However, the most general sense refers to the loss of control over oneself.
One of the most widespread conceptions during the 20th century was the one exposed by scientists who, after several studies in young populations, concluded that they used drugs to eliminate that feeling of alienation because they felt that they were regaining control over themselves.
