Resumen

Se cumplen ahora cuarenta años de la última revolución libertaria en Europa. En el recuerdo queda la acción directa en las calles y la ocupación de fábricas, pero hubo también una ideología revolucionaria poco conocida por su falta de estructuración y por la rapidez con la que se disolvió la revuelta.

En este artículo se revisan algunos aspectos de su crítica a la organización sanitaria a la que consideran un factor más del sometimiento del asalariado, y un soporte de la clase dominante. A través de sus elementos más característicos, el paradigma organicista, el papel del hospital y la ideología médica se consolida el orden social.

Palabras clave:
Mayo 68
Medicina y sociedad
Capitalismo y medicina
Summary

Forty years after the ‘68 May revolt, we have thought of interest to retrieve part of the revolutionary ideology concerning the rol of medical practice in the society they would to change.

In essence they said: the current organization of health care, although masked by mysticism, provides political support to the dominant class and favours socio-economic exploitation. Relevant features of medical structures, the hospital, the traditional medical mentality, the biologistic paradigm, etc. reinforce the hierarchical order in the capitalist society.
