CORTEZ-FERNANDEZ, Maria Guadalupe y CAMMAROTA, Karina. Exploration and identification of meanings in the production of a territory: survey of needs, problems and response modes in the first level of health care in Buenos Aires City. Rev. Int. Investig. Cienc. Soc. [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.2, pp.185-200. ISSN 2226-4000. https://doi.org/10.18004/riics.2023.diciembre.185.
Approaching a territory implies interrogating the interplay between the bureaucratically delimitated space, the practices sustained by the institutions which develop there and the experiences associated to the lifestyles of its inhabitants. Aiming to analyze the health perceptions and practices of the institutions contained within the CeSAC responsibility area, a descriptive exploratory qualitative survey using non-probability convenience sampling was carried out. The results of this investigation show the territory as a multiple space, with the notion of neighborhood being a territorial unit within the identity footprint of the “neighbors”. Social groups are identified with collective lifestyles characterized by the interweaving between class, gender and intergenerational relationships. In the neighborhoods, as life contexts, the institutions function as sociopolitical mediations through practices that represent manners of producing collective care. These extended manners of care expand the meanings of the idea of health, which is broadly dissociated from care. There can be found citizen participation and community participation practices, related to lifestyles, from those which transmit their interests, possibilities and potentialities.
