From the communication of information to the production of meaning as a strategy for promoting the right to health = Da comunicação da informação à produção do significado como estratégia para promoção do direito da saúde
Communication in health care has been discussed as a strategy that ultimately fails to promote patients’ and users’ right to health because it does not consider their prospects or disregards the socioeconomic circumstances in which they live, contributing to the occurrence of disease and suffering. Based on an anthropological approach, communication will be reconsidered here as a process of participatory production of the meaning of reality, promoting a reformulation of the experience of disease and allowing for the identification of the forms of social intervention capable of supporting such a reformulation. Introducing the concept of the right to meaning as a basis for the identification of other rights also promotes the concept of therapeutic efficacy. These concepts will be reconsidered in terms of transformation, not only in terms of possible transformations on the anatomo-physiological plane that can be performed by biomedical intervention techniques or changes in the relationships of meaning that care relationships focused on the right to meaning can promote but in terms of a transformation in the patients’ social relationships
The production and transformation of subjectivity.Healthcare and migration in the province of Bologna (Italy)
In presenting the outcome of an action-research project for Migrants healthcare carried out in the Bologna Province (The Socio-cultural Consultation Centre), the article aims at problematising he notions of agency and subjectivity by combining a cultural phenomenological approach with the analysis of the social determinants of health. Personal experience is presented as the living ground of socio-cultural processes, indicating a way by which healthcare services may include in their work both: the cultural meaning and the social production of suffering
Antropologia, politiche e prassi istituzionali. Ripensare la dimensione critica nella produzione del sapere
This contribution elucidates the trajectory through which anthropological reflection has attained institutional prominence within the realm of reconfiguring the local social and healthcare services of the Municipality of Bologna. Drawing upon insights gleaned from an inter-institutional action-research project aimed at addressing health inequalities, we show how anthropology can engender a profound reconceptualization of the notion of «health» and, consequently, foster an institutional reorganization to advance its promotion. We would argue that the critical dimension of anthropological implication in public policy lies in its potential to reassemble the representation of reality, thereby enabling the formulation and implementation of alternative action
Ethnography and Embodiment
The paradigm of embodiment helped redefining the very way cultural processes are conceptualized and investigated in social sciences. By placing the analysis at the level of lived experience, embodiment has emerged as a productive way to relate perceptions and sensations to broader socio-historical dynamics. Such a shift, tough, did not focus merely on the issues of the cultural construction of the body and the senses, it rather allowed to appreciate the very process of actors’ engagement in the production of meaning, i.e. in the practical embodied production of culture. Within this broader theoretical scenario, ethnography has been profoundly reframed as an embodied practice as well. This contribution aims at placing such a theoretical issues at the very core of ethnographic practice, showing how embodiment can help us to extend the practice of reflexivity to: 1) the ethnographers’ role in the constitution of the reality they research on; 2) the embodied ground of ethnographers’ understanding of social reality; 3) the nature of ethnography in terms of a participatory production of meaning characterized by proximity and mutual engagement
Antropologia medica e promozione della salute. Ripensare i servizi sociosanitari e sperimentare le comunità di cura attraverso la pandemia
Nello scenario in mutamento della pandemia da Covid-19, le reiterate situazioni di emergenza hanno contribuito a rendere più complesso, articolato e contraddittorio il quadro delle politiche sociosanitarie e delle pratiche di salute comunitaria. A fronte di iniziative che hanno sperimentato nuovi spazi di incontro e operatività, immaginando possibili comunità di cura, i servizi di salute territoriale hanno attraversato una complessa fase di ridefinizione delle politiche del rischio, tra richieste di delega e mandato di controllo. Le iniziative che negli anni seguenti hanno preso forma all’insegna del Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza e del successivo DM 77 nel contesto italiano hanno inoltre concorso a infittire ulteriormente il quadro delle dinamiche in corso e i tentativi di mettere a sistema le lezioni apprese in seguito alla crisi generata dall’emergenza sanitaria.
In questo quadro mutevole di eventi e di processi, è necessario approfondire la riflessione antropologica intorno a due fuochi di analisi: da un lato l’impatto della pandemia nel ripensamento delle politiche, dei modelli organizzativi e delle prassi relative alla prevenzione e alla promozione della salute; dall’altro il crescente riconoscimento dell’importanza del coinvolgimento della società civile nelle sue diverse forme di aggregazione nella realizzazione di tali prassi. La relazione fra questi due livelli è infatti terreno fertile di analisi critica, vista la sua specifica declinazione nei diversi contesti regionali, nazionali e internazionali e i differenti modi di confrontarsi con le ineguaglianze sociali e le vulnerabilità struttural
Trabalho de proximidade e cuidados intermediários de um ponto de vista antropológico
Le cure intermedie vengono viste come ambito interstiziale dal quale è possibile generare un ripensamento profondo del concetto di cura come processo partecipativo in cui paziente e suoi altri significativi emergono come attori nella promozione di una ridefinizione del proprio esserci nel mondo
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
