HILLESHEIM, Betina  and  BERNARDES, Anita Guazzelli. Territory and nomadism: the health at issue. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.66, n.3, pp. 47-58. ISSN 1809-5267.

This article aims to discuss the relationship between territory and nomadism in the field of health. To do so, nomadism is seen as a powerful concept to problematize public health policies from the territorial perspective that they take. Therefore, it is not to bring the experience of the nomads themselves, but use nomadism as a problematic tool. Taking into account the relationship between territory and segmentarity of health, it is considered the territory collated by nomadism, indicating it as the line slope of the public health policy and as a powered concept to think of it. The discussion is based on post-structuralists conceptual tooling such as governmentality, subjectivity and territorialization.

Keywords : Territory; Nomadism; Public health policies.
