| Summary: | ABSTRACT: On September 24th and 25th of 2015, in the city of Medellin, the Public Health Masters at the University of Antioquia (Colombia) commemorated two decades of existence. This paper highlights some of the ideas presented in the central forum of the event "20 years building collective health", and aims to stablish some reflection axes concerning collective health, from our teaching experience as the main viewpoint. Initially, some ideas are drawn to identify the way the central arguments that support the social component in health have been historically built, and also to give importance to the relation between social sciences and health. Then, some questions and challenges are outlined for the actors in this field of knowledge and practices, particularly the ones referred to the need of rethinking the epistemological and theoretical positions, method- related issues, and of measuring the ethical-political by its self-criticism posibilities and its condition to account for relevance and pertinence to the practice in the Latin American Social Medicine/Collective Health field. As closure, it is emphatically suggested that the critical current is strenghtened, in order to continue gaining ground, persisting, and confronting those postures that, in the name of the counter-hegemonic, maintain and reproduce conservative models to look, think and act in the world, with great lack in reflective and transformative potential. |
