- Institutionalization of Public Health Care in Sao Paulo between 1930 and 1940(2013) MOTA, Andre; SCHRAIBER, Lilia BlimaThe aim of the study was to interpret and understand the institutionalization of public health care in the state of Sao Paulo over the years 1930-1940, based on the history of medical specialties. The methodology involved analysis of new sources of documents, which were compared with the existing literature, thereby leading to identification of new indices relating to the issue of eugenics and the presence of physicians' religious beliefs as a social movement. As physicians became public health experts, they proposed a project to elevate the Brazilian race, by merging the hygienist discourse with sanitary actions. Sao Paulo sought primacy in this project, believing that this was a State already constituted by a race of ""historically healthy men"". Religious beliefs influenced the debate and the decisions of that time with regard to the established order within public health. In this manner, it could be shown that, historically, public health discourse was constituted by merging technical-scientific issues with political-ideological and cultural issues, producing a mixture of different interests and corporative perspectives of the profession.
- The spanish flu through the lens of local history: archives, memory and origin myths in Botucatu, Sao Paulo, Brazil, 1918(2020) RIBEIRO, Anna Cristina Rodopiano de Carvalho; MARQUES, Maria Cristina da Costa; MOTA, AndreConsidering that the logic of historical investigation is grounded on the development of empirical research, this study approaches challenges in the construction of local history about the spanish flu pandemic in the city of Botucatu, State of SAO Paulo, in view of scattered and fragmented collections without archival care and with damaged materiality. The study discusses memory-producing places and shows how the selection and articulation of the past reflect what one intends to preserve around local discourses and representations by power apparatuses. It captures, in a dialectic game involving the past that has not ceased to exist and is brought to the present in the power of archives and collective memory, the social forces that acted in institutionalized care at Botucatu. Thus, it deconstructs origin myths, contextualizes singularities, historicizes inequities, and captures representations and expectations about the city's order and the body's health, in this space-time.
- The concept of health in Collective Health: contributions from social and historical critique of scientific production(2019) SILVA, Marcelo José de Souza e; SCHRAIBER, Lilia Blima; MOTA, AndréAbstract This study aimed to understand the concept of health within Collective Health. Our analysis starts from Marxism as a theoretical reference, both to define what is a “concept” and to understand the critical thinking of Collective Health. As empirical research the bibliographic production of the main journals that bring together Collective Health publications as a knowledge area was used, which resulted in 34 papers that somehow treated the concept of health, even if it was not the main object of the study. From this analysis we identified at least three different modalities of definitions, which varied both in the referential basis used to apprehend and analyze empirical realities concerning health, and in the conceptualization of social that could be in this analysis. We have also identified that the papers ranged between a production that was strictly descriptive of these empirical realities and strictly theoretical essays, rather than to produce a concrete (empirical) thought based on the elected definition of social. It was concluded that within Health Collective the concept of health has been taken, in general, either as a notion (a partial approximation of the object) or as a motto, from an ethical-political engagement that ends up relegating the theoretical-conceptual contribution to the background.
- Medicine under the lens of history: theoretical and methodological reflections(2014) MOTA, Andre; SCHRAIBER, Lilia BlimaThe need for studies in the field of health to be based on a historical perspective has opened up new horizons for the analysis of the conditions for the creation of a body of knowledge aimed at explaining the role of social elements in determining pathological processes and health practices. The purpose of this paper is to examine how historical science, with its methodological aspects of analysis, has contributed to the physician's practice, especially raising broader critical aspects of the issues related to the field of health care. It is based on dialogues between culture and society molded around a discursive order to act not just as a language, but in its effective implementation within a medical rationale, with attention to the ruptures and continuities of a scientific discourse.
- O Programa Saúde da Família no bairro do Bom Retiro, SP, Brasil: a comunicação entre bolivianos e trabalhadores de saúde(2014) AGUIAR, Marcia Ernani de; MOTA, AndréThis paper presents the analyzis of the interaction between the Family Health Program (PSF) and Bolivian immigrants in the Bom Retiro district of São Paulo, Brazil, through specific experience. To this goal, semi-structured interviews were conducted with Bolivians and healthcare workers at the Bom Retiro PSF, with the particular aim of ascertaining the dimensions of the worlds of work and housing and the great immigratory spatial mobility, thereby requiring flexibility within the cartographic logic of the PSF, with broadening of the concept of family and communicative strategies – hiring of a Bolivian healthcare agent, production of educational material in Spanish and use of Bolivian radio stations –, which would have the capacity to be translated into improved healthcare services.
- The Leser Reform: the architecture of a Sao Paulo (Brazil) public health project, 1967-1979(2019) MOTA, Andre; SCHRAIBER, Lilia Blima; AYRES, Jose Ricardo de Carvalho MesquitaAs part of a study on the history of public health in Sao Paulo, aiming at identifying and debating regional peculiarities on the creation and consolidation of public health, this article intends to present a historical dimension analysis on some of the actions carried out by the sanitary physician Walter Leser, in charge of the Secretary of Health in the state of Sao Paulo between 1967 and 1970, in the first period, and between 1975 and 1979, in the second period. It was, in fact, in this last period that actions were undertaken to implement the Leser Sanitary Reform, as was named, at the end, this Sao Paulo initiative. This article recovers the relevance of these actions, both in the sense of reorganization of the government's public health machinery and for the contextual opening to the public health movement of Sao Paulo, which was organized, above all, within the state government's machinery of the period. It is considered that the Leser Reform has had a relevant impact especially in the constitution of Primary Health Care (PHC) and in its consolidation as an important level for the health system, as it would be considered in the proposal and implementation of the Brazilian National Health System (SUS) after 1988. However, the public policy that defined the PHC under the Leser Reform as a certain care model, the Programacao em Saude, had a very short historical existence.
- Health education in the 70's: a lesser-known facet of Cecilia Donnangelo(2017) MOTA, Andre; SCHRAIBER, Lilia Blima; AYRES, Jose Ricardo de Carvalho MesquitaThe article is the product of historical research about the emergence and up growth of Sao Paulo's Collective Health, through the analysis of an unpublished text, authored in 1976, by Cecilia Donnangelo, one of the main contributors to the construction of this field in Brazil and a pioneer in social thinking in health. In the text, she examines ""Health Education"", shedding light upon the historical roots of how this practice was institutionalized. The words of the author are used in the methodology as pieces related to the context that had when crafted, giving to the discourse the nature of a historical document, thus evidencing issues that are involved in past-present relationships in the interface between health and education. Through this process, the author demonstrates how, through the use of the medicalization concept that she developed in another of her works, health education becomes a public policy in the health domain that extends itself beyond the area of public health to acquire institutionalized formats in the individual medical care. It also enlarges its reach farther on its initial health realm becoming a school-related intervention. In this fashion, health education is molded as an important health policy tool, as well as a device that have direct impact on the social domain, collaborating as an additional instrument strengthening medicalization and its accompanying biopower.
- Between the particular and the general: constitution of ""black madness"" in the Hospice of Juquery, Sao Paulo, Brazil - 1898-1920(2019) MACHIN, Rosana; MOTA, AndreBased on a socio-historical perspective, the present article discusses the problematization of the race issue in psychiatric knowledge by analyzing the scientific production developed by the Hospice of Juquery and its daily operations, through access to records of its asylum practices. The studied period, 1898 to 1920, includes the creation of the institution and its management under Franco da Rocha, its founder, a time when the debate about the free man and its significance to the nation's formation began to take shape. The source text was extracted from the clinical medical histories of inpatients, as well as the records and scientific production developed by the institution during the studied period.
- Representations of the medical-eugenic discourse about progeny: mendelist eugenics in the doctoral theses of the Medicine and Surgery College of Sao Paulo [Faculdade de Medicina e Cirurgia de Sao Paulo] in the 1920s(2017) VERZOLLA, Beatriz Lopes Porto; MOTA, AndreEugenics represented a movement of great repercussion by the end of 19th century, which intended to improve and enhance human species, including actions of education and restrictions to reproduction, contributing to the foundation of order and civility, based on progress and on moral and physical superiority of individuals. This article aims to present and discuss elements extracted from doctoral theses of the Medicine College of the University of Sao Paulo (Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Sao Paulo) in the 1920s, specifically related to the theme of mendelist eugenics from the point of view of that period's scientific production. The chosen span represents a moment of great influence of medicine in society, because of actions of control and normalization of individuals, influenced by eugenic theories. The doctoral theses represent the beginning of the College's student production and contain influences from theories in vogue of the period - evolutionist, positivist and eugenic theories. Eight doctoral theses were selected for presentation in this article, and they were analyzed from the concept of representation as document reading technique. In these theses, one can observe the concern of the authors with the formation of eugenic descent, defending the establishment of measures such as restriction to marriages, prenuptial medical examination and, in some cases, compulsory sterilization.
- The Institute for Tropical Medicine of Sao Paulo: characteristics of its creation, 1940-1959(2020) SILVA, Ewerton Luiz Figueiredo Moura da; MOTA, AndreThis article was based on an examination of newspapers, reports, and memorial texts. It aims at offering a historiographical contribution about the creation of the Institute for Tropical Medicine (IMT, Institute de Medicina Tropical), approved in January 1959 after an institutional movement led by Prof. Carlos da Silva Lacaz, who was also its first director. The objective is to highlight important factors that contributed to the decision of creating an institute of Tropical Medicine in the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, capital of the state of Sao Paulo. The first of them was to internationalize the Brazilian Tropical Medicine, namely its relationship with Portuguese tropicalists that was consubstantiated with the migration of Brazilians, particularly from the city of Sao Paulo, to European institutes of Tropical Medicine. The presence of rural endemic diseases in the state, which were becoming increasingly visible in the capital due to migratory movements to the big city, also contributed to its creation.
