Recovery from drug use is receiving increased attention in critical drug studies. Researchers point out the importance of scrutinizing the term and its meanings anew in order to better understand drug use treatment policies and their effects on the individuals they target. Informed by relational ontological thinking, this article analyses a series of empirical accounts of recovery experiences, and offers a critical assessment of the social contexts of recovery. Qualitative data collected in Azerbaijan and Germany provide distinctive reports of the differentiated experiences of youth as they make and re-make sense of their recovery within specific recovery contexts. Discussions reveal how recovery advances in relations between human and nonhuman actors including spaces, bodies, affects, and practices. On the basis of this analysis, we argue that recovery may be framed as an emergent and dynamic context that becomes with and from drug use.
在药物研究中，人们越来越关注药物使用的康复问题。研究人员指出，为了更好地理解药物使用治疗政策及其对目标人群的影响，有必要重新审视该术语及其含义。本文基于关系本体论思维，对一系列关于康复体验的实证资料进行了分析，并对康复的社会背景进行了批判性评估。在阿塞拜疆和德国收集的定性资料提供了有关青年在特定康复背景下构建和重新构建康复意义的差异化经验的独特报告。讨论揭示了在人类与非人类行为者（包括空间、身体、情感和实践）之间，康复是如何推进的。在此基础上，我们认为，康复可以被视为一个新兴的、动态的背景，它是随着药物使用而出现和发展的。
