ABSTRACT

Cada sistema cultural médico construye conocimientos sobre la salud a partir de la especialización y del interculturalismo. El conocimiento construido a partir de las relaciones interculturales ha buscado, principalmente, adecuar la atención en salud a los referentes culturales de los usuarios. Este énfasis ha omitido las oportunidades que representa establecer relaciones entre sistemas culturales médicos basadas en el diálogo; especialmente, las que permitirían ajustar los límites disciplinares de los sistemas en relación, para construir nuevo conocimiento en salud. En esta ausencia de diálogo han incidido tanto las barreras epistemológicas propias de cada sistema, como las relaciones de dominación social. Este artículo expone algunos conceptos relacionados con los procesos cognoscitivos que posibilitan superar dichas barreras, con el fin de que las ciencias de la salud puedan aportar a la puesta en práctica de las recomendaciones de la Organización Mundial de la Salud y del Estado sobre el particular.


Each medical cultural system constructs knowledge about health through specialization or interculturalism. The knowledge constructed through interculturalism has sought, mainly, to adapt the delivery of health care services to the users' cultural referents. This emphasis has overlooked the opportunities embedded in the establishment of intercultural relationships between medical systems based on dialogue, especially in regard to the adjustment of the disciplinary boundaries of medical cultural systems that would allow the construction of new knowledge on health. This absence of dialogue has been determined by epistemological barriers inherent to every system as well as by social domination. This article presents some concepts related to cognition processes which encourage the reflection on the possibilities to overcome such barriers so that the health sciences may contribute to the effective implementation of the World Health Organization and the State's recommendations on the matter. Key words: Medical Anthropology, medical cultural systems, interculturalism, intercultural dialogue, cognition, health policy, education overcome such barriers so that the health sciences may contribute to the effective implementation of the World Health Organization and the State's recommendations on the matter.
