Resumen
FASSIN, DIDIER. ENTRE LAS POLÍTICAS DE LO VIVIENTE Y LAS POLÍTICAS DE LA VIDA. HACIA UNA ANTROPOLOGÍA DE LA SALUD. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2004, vol.40, pp.283-318. ISSN 0486-6525.
THROUGH A REVIEW OF RECENT TRENDS IN MEDICAL ANTHROPOLOGY, THIS ARTICLE defines the theoretical and methodological challenges faced by anthropology in the field of health studies. As such, the political anthropology of health posits a fundamental distinction between what lives and what is alive, given that health itself is not an ideological problem. Rather, it integrates broader social logics. On one hand, the development of new medical technologies, and on the other, the implementation of state policies regarding social security, condition access to health services, reflecting the existing power relations that weigh in on the government of life and disease.
