Abstract

Chez les Indiens Potowatomi, toute démonstration de dépendance ou de besoin de sécurité était et est encore défendue. Traditionnellement, l'acquisition d'un esprit protecteur satisfaisait ce besoin sur le plan individuel. De nos jours, il semble que l'alcool se soit substitué à l'esprit protecteur et qu'en état d'ivresse un individu puisse chercher l'appui de ses concitoyens.
