Description
Summary:Health, illness, medical attention and health care: Views from the social sciences: This book presents, in abbreviated form, the results of research carried out by a group of sociologists and social anthropologists who, while addressing diverse problems, reflect on social processes related to health, disease, medical attention and health care. The research was carried out in the region of La Plata (province of Buenos Aires) and addresses two major general areas: the first one, related to health policies, medical attention and health care processes, particularly oriented to vulnerable sectors (due to living conditions and age), and the second one, more related to the connections between gender and health, which explores issues related to childbirth, young parenthood in vulnerable sectors and transgender body modifications.
Este libro presenta, en forma abreviada, resultados de investigaciones realizadas por un grupo de sociólogas y antropólogas sociales que, si bien abordan problemáticas diversas, reflexionan acerca de procesos sociales referidos a la salud, la enfermedad, la atención y los cuidados. Las investigaciones fueron realizadas en la región de La Plata (provincia de Buenos Aires) y abordan dos grandes temas generales: uno referido a políticas en salud, procesos de atención y cuidados, en particular orientados a sectores vulnerables (por condiciones de vida y por edad), y otro más vinculado a las relaciones de género y salud (en el que se exploran temas referidos a los partos, las paternidades juveniles en sectores vulnerables y las modificaciones corporales trans).
