bookPart Residências terapêuticas(2021) SANTANA, Carmen Lúcia Albuquerque de; OLIVEIRA, Elda de; PRATES, José Gilberto- The contribution of intersectionality on understanding young men's health-disease and care in contexts of urban poverty(2020) OLIVEIRA, Elda de; COUTO, Marcia Thereza; SEPARAVICH, Marco Antonio Alves; LUIZ, Olinda do CarmoThis article analyzes the experiences of young men living in the city outskirts regarding social inequalities and their impacts on the health-disease-care production process. The empirical material that supports the intersectional analysis was produced with a qualitative methodology of research-action based on workshops, a group technique with participatory investigations. A total of 21 men and five women aged between 15 and 17 years who studied at a neighborhood public school of the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, state of Sao Paulo, participated in the study. The results highlight that young men share intertwined race-color, class, gender, and generation disadvantages that act in a complex way in the production of social and health inequalities. Therefore, analyses that restrict inequalities to a single classificatory system-class, gender, or race/color-are inadequate to understand the various dimensions that comprise them.
- Race and obesity in the black female population: a scoping review(2020) ORAKA, Claudia Simoes; FAUSTINO, Deivison Mendes; OLIVEIRA, Elda; TEIXEIRA, Joao Alexandre Mendes; SOUZA, Allex Sander Porfirio de; LUIZ, Olinda do CarmoAbout 40% of the world's population is overweight. Obesity is most prevalent among social strata with lower income and education. Although the association between sociodemographic factors and weight gain is well documented, few researchers associated obesity with race/color. This article aims to map the extent, scope, and nature of the association between obesity and race in the scientific literature by conducting a scoping review. Data sources were the Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline), Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Web of Science, Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative (Hinari), and Scopus databases, as well as the gray literature. In total, 2,526 articles were found. After duplicates were excluded and inclusion and exclusion criteria applied, 10 articles remained. Race, obesity, socioeconomic status, and gender are tied into a complex relationship whose specificity lies on the socio-historical context. Racial disparities in obesity may be explained by physiological, psychological, and cultural effects of stress due to racial discrimination. Although racial inequality happens everywhere, it assumes different forms. Considering that, further studies should approach regional differences.
- Structural determinants of health, race, gender, and social class: a scope review(2021) GALVAO, Anna Larice Meneses; OLIVEIRA, Elda; GERMANI, Ana Claudia Camargo Goncalves; LUIZ, Olinda do CarmoThis article aims at exploring and systematizing the knowledge about structural health determinants. For such purpose, we developed a scope review in the databases Web of Science, Cinahl, Scopus, Lilacs and PubMed; and in the journals International Journal of Epidemiology,Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health,American Journal of Public Health and American Journal of Epidemiology from 2005 to 2018. We used the search terms ""Social Determinants of health"", ""Health services"", ""health policies"", and""inequity"". We identified 1,164 articles, of which 19 were selected. The structural determinants, also called social markers, were race, gender, gender identity, migration and social class. Theoretical perspectives of these articles, directly or indirectly,assumed health as a right. The proposed health policies focused on the positive effect of planning functions, training of service providers, and reduction of barriers to access and participation of excluded groups on equity. We concluded that the scientific literature reinforces that every individual must have the capacity to reach a personal ideal state of health without any distinction of race, skin color, religion,language, nationality, socioeconomic resources, genre, sexual orientation, gender identity,physical, mental or emotional disability, or any other characteristic linked to discrimination or exclusion from social and political opportunities.
- The impact of Covid-19 on marginalized groups: the contribution of Intersectionality as theoretical and political perspective(2021) MARQUES, Ana Lucia Marinho; SORRENTINO, Isa da Silva; RODRIGUES, Julliana Luiz; MACHIN, Rosana; OLIVEIRACC, Elda de; COUTOM, Marcia TherezaThe Covid-19 pandemic poses a number of challenges to governments and society. The pandemic has detrimental effects on regions characterized by deep social inequality and the most vulnerable populations, leading to the need for theoretical and methodological frameworks to help understand its impacts and build strategies to address them. This critical essay addresses the interconnection between social markers of the difference in the production of the inequalities that affect marginalized social groups, such as homeless drug users, sex workers, domestic workers and the young LGBTQIA+ community, and analyzes the strengths of the intersectional perspective for the analysis of problems and construction of policies to tackle them.
- The feminist perspective of intersectionality in the field of public health: a narrative review of the theoretical-methodological literature(2019) COUTO, Marcia Thereza; OLIVEIRA, Elda de; SEPARAVICH, Marco Antonio Alves; LUIZ, Olinda do CarmoThe intersectionality approach emerged in the late 1990s in the field of black feminist activism in the USA, as a critique of one-dimensional analyses of social inequalities. This descriptive-analytical narrative review presents the current state of theoretical- methodological inclusion of intersectionality in public health. Seven scientific literature databases were consulted: Web of Science, Embase, Cinahl, Scopus, Sociological Abstracts, Lilacs, and Medline, resulting in 1763 papers. After duplicates were eliminated and the titles and abstracts screened, 30 papers produced in five countries between 2006 and 2017 were selected. The analysis, structured into three central themes (theoretical-methodological debates, social markers - gender, race, ethnicity and sexual orientation - and health policies and practices), shows intersectionality to be a promising analytical resource for understanding and facing the global challenge of inequalities in health.
