English to Spanish: Of racism, sterilization and some other oblivion of Mexican anthropology and epidemiology General field: Science Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English ABSTRACT
In the last years, epidemiological and anthropological works developed in Mexico have shown the presence of certain similar technical and methodological orientations which tend to leave aside important problems and factors in the description and analysis of different health/sickness/attention processes (HSAP). These orientations also tend to distort data and formulate interpretations that have little to do with the processes that really occur in the reality studied. Such orientations will be described and analyzed through three processes: a) the scarce or non-existent inclusion of racism in the study and analysis of HSAP; b) the distortions of the data and interpretation generated by the studies of gender regarding one part of the violence; and c) the exclusion of certain aspect and in particular, the subjectivity in the prevailing interpretations about the characteristics and increases of the homicides in Mexico. Particular and joint interpretations are proposed and the need to use a rational approach to the study of HSAP is highlighted.
KEY WORDS: Racism; Sterilization; Gender and Health; Epidemiology; Anthropology.
Translation - Spanish RESUMEN
En los últimos años se observan tanto en trabajos epidemiológicos como antropológicos desarrollados en México, la presencia de ciertas orientaciones técnicas y metodológicas similares que tienden a dejar de lado problemas y factores importantes en la descripción y análisis de diversos procesos de salud/enfermedad/atención (PSEA), así como a tergiversar datos y formular interpretaciones que tienen poco que ver con los procesos que realmente ocurren en la realidad estudiada. Dichas orientaciones serán descritas y analizadas a través de tres procesos: a) la escasa o nula inclusión del racismo en el estudio y análisis de los PSEA; b) las distorsiones de los datos e interpretaciones generadas por parte de los estudios de género respecto de una parte de las violencias, y c) la exclusión de ciertos aspectos y en particular de la subjetividad en las interpretaciones dominantes sobre las características e incrementos de los homicidios en México. Se proponen interpretaciones particulares y de conjunto y se subraya la necesidad de utilizar un enfoque relacional en el estudio de los PSEA.
PALABRAS CLAVE: Racismo; Esterilización; Género y Salud; Epidemiología; Antropología.
