Posters & Accepted Abstracts: Primary Health Care
Health care, given the wide availability and strong pressure to incorporate scientific and biotechnological innovations, has the challenge of looking at relationships. Intersubjective relationships are the �substratum� of care and need to deal with the influence of power that circumscribe them in order to guarantee recognition and respect, essential to autonomy and citizenship. Axel Honneth's Theory of Recognition contains constructs and notes for taking relational and communicational inadequacies and conflicts. In this way, it has already been used to discuss health care, its policies and the worker�s experiences in health care. The presentation aim to discuss adolescent�s health care taking the Brazilian�s context, mainly the diagnoses throughout the adoption of Axel Honneth's Theory of Recognition, but with potential to be extended to other contexts.
