Summary. — The ethico-social problems examined in this article concern psychopharacology, which is to say such pharmacological products as act upon the brain and thereby directly condition human behaviour. An attempt is made in this article to determine specifically the significance and the value of so-called «hallucinogenic» drugs in relation to religious experience in general, and to mystical phenomena in particular. There clearly — and worryingly — emerge from this inyestigation the illusory nature of any intended « artificial paradise » and the extremely negative consequences of the use of such drugs
