This research project as a qualitative approach, anchored in the theoretical-methodological perspective of life-histories, and aims to reflect on the aesthetic-political activism of female Brazilian activist artists with a history of migration, in order to understand the meanings, concepts and processes of said activism, as well as the representations reflected in different experiences. The study may offer clues to think about the situation of women and, above all, discuss the importance of the arts in the emancipatory processes of migrant women. The research instruments adopted were: semi-structured interviews, field diary and photographic records. Five interviews were conducted via the web, which were transcribed and analyzed in the light of content analysis. The results reveal a multiplicity of experiences that are expressed through performances, occupations of the urban space, music, netativism, video-installation, among others. Aesthetic-political activism is conceived as an action that materializes in aesthetic expressions with an inherently political character, centered on the fight against social inequalities and oppression relations, as well as the creation of other discourses, representations and spaces capable of subverting the instituted social order.

This article approaches the Italian and Brazilian health policies based on a historical overview of the economic and political conjunctures from the 18th century to the 20th century, so as to identify elements that signal similarities and differences in order to understand the materialization process of the right to health. The present study is a descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The data source includes official documents and a literature review in a historical perspective. The data analysis is carried out based on Everyday Bioethics. The results show that in both States the right to health is rendered concrete as a result of the workers' initiative, with the aim of satisfying one of its dimensions: the right to health assistance. The following aspects were observed: similarities in the social protection models, the importance of Italy in the Brazilian construction process of the right to health, differences between the new governmental actions established after the sanitary reforms, and the need to confront, by means of a political system of rules, the historical ethical conflict between individual rights and the guarantee of social rights, mainly the right to health, in both realities. ; Este artigo busca percorrer as políticas de saúde italiana e brasileira em um recorte histórico das conjunturas econômicas e políticas do século XVIII ao século XX, na perspectiva de identificar elementos sinalizadores de aproximações e distanciamentos para compreender o processo de materialização do direito à saúde. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva com abordagem qualitativa, tendo como fonte de dados documentos oficiais e revisão de literatura, numa perspectiva histórica. A análise dos dados é feita com base na bioética cotidiana. Os resultados obtidos mostram que, em ambos os Estados, a origem da concretização do direito à saúde é fruto da iniciativa dos trabalhadores com o propósito de satisfazer uma de suas dimensões: o direito à assistência à saúde. Percebem-se similaridades nos modelos de proteção social, a importância da Itália no processo brasileiro de construção do direito à saúde, distanciamento entre as novas ações estatais instituídas após as reformas sanitárias e a necessidade de se enfrentar, valendo-se de um sistema político de regras, o histórico conflito ético entre os direitos individuais e a garantia dos direitos sociais, especialmente o direito à saúde, nas duas realidades.
