Abstract

GUIMARAES, Cristian Fabiano  and  MENEGHEL, Stela Nazareth. Subjetividade e saúde coletiva: produção de discursos na re-significação do processo saúde-doença no pós-moderno. Rev. Mal-Estar Subj. [online]. 2003, vol.3, n.2, pp. 353-371. ISSN 1518-6148.

This article is focused on the construction of health from the birth of the social medicine in the XVIII century and from the individual clinic advent. It analyses the improvement of the health concept demonstrating that health practices, the work of professional in this field and the (dis)organization of the pos-modern world, infer new meanings to the health-illness process or to the representation of the illness. The contemporary way of subjectivity assume an important place, because they affirm the neoliberal ideology and confirm the normative and discipline chain of the health sciences, offering social recognition for those practices in collective health. Thus, we see the multiplication of iatrogenic effects of the health sciences and the destitution of the subject's autonomy about himself and his health, the desire's capture and the narcissistic investment in the technique's joy. At last, this article aims the necessity that social psychology seizes collective health, contributing to a better understanding of health and the subject's subjectivity.

Keywords : collective health; subjectivity; work relations.
