0309/2019 - Crise das utopias e as quatro justiças: Ecologias, epistemologias e emancipação social para reinventar a saúde coletiva. Crisis of utopias and the four justices: Ecologies, epistemologies and social emancipation for reinventing collective health.
O artigo propõe uma leitura da crise da saúde no interior de uma crise mais ampla das utopias e da necessidade de reinventarmos a emancipação social que indique trilhas realistas de esperanças a partir do presente. Para isso propomos a articulação de quatro tipos de justiça: social, sanitária, ambiental e cognitiva. As duas primeiras são bem conhecidas do pensamento crítico e da saúde coletiva, e as duas últimas ampliam o entendimento da crise em sua natureza civilizatória, ética e planetária, marcada pelas contradições e potencial destrutivo da modernidade eurocêntrica, ocidental e capitalista. O social, na perspectiva assumida, é considerado indissociável das dimensões ecológicas, ontológicas e epistemológicas que marcarão os grandes embates na interface entre ética, política, ciência e transformação social em tempos de acirramento das várias crises, surgimento de distopias e necessária transição civilizatória. O artigo se apoia nas contribuições de três campos do conhecimento; a saúde coletiva, a ecologia política e as abordagens pós-coloniais, em especial as epistemologias do Sul de Boaventura de Sousa Santos em torno da reinvenção da emancipação social. Ao final propomos breves reflexões para que a saúde coletiva produza alternativas sobre temas como desenvolvimento econômico, científico e tecnológico, promoção, vigilância, atenção e cuidado.
The article proposes a reinterpretation about the health crisis within a broader crisis of utopias and the need to reinvent social emancipation that show us realistic paths of hopethe present. For this we propose the articulation of four types of justice: social, health, environmental and cognitive. The first two are well known in critical thinking and collective health, and the latter two extend the understanding of the crisis in its civilizing, ethical, and planetary nature, marked by the contradictions and destructive potential of Eurocentric, Western and capitalist modernity. The social is considered inseparablethe ecological, ontological, and epistemological dimensions in the interface between ethics, politics, science and social transformation related to the various crises and the necessary civilizational transition. The article is based on contributionsthree fields of knowledges; collective health, political ecology and postcolonial approaches, especially the epistemologies of the South presented by Boaventura de Sousa Santos around the reinvention of social emancipation. Finally we propose some brief reflections for collective health in producing alternatives on topics such as economic, scientific and technological development, health promotion, surveillance, and care.
