Ontologías y emergencia de "lo social” en el pensamiento en salud

Ontologies and emergence of "the social" in health thinking

Abstract

Abstract: A theoretical and philosophical exploration of the social is carried out in this essay, in relation to how its conception has to do with the definitions regarding health thinking. The first part discusses the reductionist and deterministic view of the New Right. In the second part we address the ontology of the social, this exercise we carry out on the basis of the concept of totality and emergency. In the third and fourth part we propose dialectics as a useful tool to observe the movement of the social. Finally, three characteristics of our object of reflection are discussed, the layers: shallow, medium and deep, temporality and space. Our vision is based on three authors, Juan Samaja, Jaime Osorio and Hugo Zemelman.
