MORA-LEMUS, Giovanni. Struggles and discourses for the right to health in times of pandemic: a demand in motion?. Rev. colomb. soc. [online]. 2023, vol.46, n.1, pp.139-168.  Epub 02-Mayo-2024. ISSN 0120-159X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rcs.v46n1/101346.

The global pandemic situation of recent years has led to focus on health systems. In Colombia, before and during the health emergency, conflicts and mobilizations have been generated around the right to health and its concomitant debate on the way the General Social Security Health System was conceived. This research article situates the reader in the assessment made by the subaltern sectors of the health system, reviewing their demands and proposals. It also provides a critical perspective on the hegemonic struggle that is currently taking place in the health field. The text was constructed from an interpretative and critical epistemological perspective, and a qualitative approach. It combined techniques as participant observation, analysis of the speeches and pronounce-ments of activists posted on social networks, by dissimilar trade union, and community organizations, as well as conferences, lectures, and academic papers published in alterna-tive journals or newspapers in recent years.

Palabras clave : hegemony; neoliberal health violence; covid-19 pandemic; right to health; social movements in health.
