RESUMEN
Este artículo tiene el objetivo de exponer la esencia, las fuerzas y el motor capitalista de la globalización como fenómeno histórico, mostrando las esferas de su intervención y sus efectos sobre la vida humana en general. Luego, se adentra en la relación globalización-mercados financieros y se enlazan sus impactos con las inequidades sociales y su expresión en el caso del sector de la salud en Colombia. Se cuestiona el rol de las Empresas Promotoras de Salud en este país y se ilustra cómo se han convertido en grupos empresariales como palanca financiera de negocios impensables del orden nacional y trasnacional. Uno a uno se fueron configurando entramados irreconocibles y difíciles de auditar que, junto a la falta de voluntad política por una reforma estructural al sistema de salud y seguridad social en Colombia mantiene al país en un escenario complejo, aun cuando luego de muchas disputas sociales, se declarara en el año 2015 que la salud es un derecho humano fundamental(AU)
