Special Issue. Health in the Feminist Theory and Vindications
In contemporary feminism, the field of health is one of the areas under study and also under critical analysis, theorization and research. Feminist studies and research have shown that discourses on women's health, their general discomfort and female diseases, clinical and professional practices, health sciences and policies have historically been indispensable tools of patriarchy for control and subordination of women. . Therefore, the field of health is also the object of feminist mobilization, vindication of public policies aimed at the transformation of sciences and health institutions, the training of professionals in the feminist paradigm and the creation of new protocols for attention to Women's health issues.
