The emergence of the concept of participation in public health ; La emergencia de concepciones de participación en salud pública
The objective of this study is to identify the emergence of notions of health participation, in the public health movement in Brazil.

Con inspiración en la genealogía foucaultiana, más que investigar los orígenes y definiciones consistentes de participación, esperamos identificar ciertas continuidades, encontrar las fuerzas y acontecimientos que revelan los movimientos dispersos, irregulares, montados estratégicamente para tornar la participación palabra de orden y forjar consensos ...
