Contradictions of right to health in capitalism:

highlighting brazilian reality

Abstract

This article has the goal to analyze the social determinations about health inherent to a capitalist social model, just as refutations of conter-reform of the State of health politics in brazilian reality. Thus, we can make a review from a critical perspective which let us apprehend health as a space of contradictions, conflicts and interests, contested by private sector, related to the profitable logic of currency, this helps on focus, fragmentation and absence of universality. In te contemporaneity, health has been made to fit in a marketing conception, it then becomes part of a contraditory mechanism and, specially, of rights denial, against the fact that it is tangled to the universal principle, participative and uncentered. As the Reading ends, we can understand that the capitalist State`s acting in neoliberalism is boosting the disasslemblement of rights hardly conquered by working class, with nefarious reflexes in health politics.
