Abstract
- Brief intensive behavioral interventions which promise a one session miracle cure from drug or alcohol dependence are very common in the Russian addiction psychiatry, particularly in its commercial domain. Unlike traditional shamanism these behavioral interventions are presented to the patients as the most recent advances in the main stream addiction medicine and therefore they can be called "scientifically decorated shamanism". The paper includes classification of these methods, reasons for this phenomenon to be so common in the Russian addiction psychiatry (narcology), and also possible approaches to the modernization of the Russian narcology system with evidence based approach to research and clinical practice to be the major one.
