Abstract
BORRERO-RAMIREZ, Yadira Eugenia and ECHEVERRY-LOPEZ, María Esperanza. Balance of national research on collective action and social movements for health in Colombia. Rev. Gerenc. Polit. Salud [online]. 2014, vol.13, n.26, pp.76-89. ISSN 1657-7027.
Objective: The aim of this article is to present the balance of national studies related to collective action and social movements for health in Colombia. Method: A state of the art, that included the revision of research from two sources: thesis conducted between 1990 and 2012 and research articles published in databases from indexed journals in the same period. Results: The results showed that research has been more predominant specifically regarding sociopolitical struggles and the existence of some emergent research that analyze collective action and/or the actors who struggle for health. Conclusion: The field of the research on the collective action for health is emerging at national level, the theoretical approaches are mostly structuralists, and there are still few investigations that approximate the study of the processes of configuration of secondary collective actors that dispute the health field.
