À l’ère de la mondialisation institutionnelle des sociétés modernes, alors que la confluence d’une myriade d’influences à la fois micro et macro-contextuelles complexifient le panorama sociopolitique international, l’intégration de l’idéal participatif par les processus de démocratisation de la santé publique acquiert l’apparence d’une stratégie organisationnelle promouvant la cohésion des multiples initiatives qui se tissent simultanément aux échelles locale et globale. L’actualisation constante des savoirs contemporains par les divers secteurs sociétaux ainsi que la perception sociale de différents risques conduisent à la prise de conscience des limites de la compétence technique des systèmes experts associés au domaine de la santé et des services sociaux. La santé publique, une des responsables légitimes de la gestion des risques modernes à l’échelle internationale, fait la promotion de la création d’espaces participatifs permettant l’interaction mutuelle d’acteurs intersectoriels et de savoirs multiples constamment modifiables. Il s’agit là d’une stratégie de relocalisation institutionnelle de l’action collective afin de rétablir la confiance envers la fiabilité des représentants de la santé publique internationale, qui ne répondent que partiellement aux besoins actuels de la sécurité populationnelle. Dans ce contexte, les conseils locaux de santé (CLS), mis en place à l’échelle internationale dans le cadre des politiques régionales de décentralisation des soins de santé primaires (SSP), représentent ainsi des espaces participatifs intéressants qui renferment dans leur fonctionnement tout un univers de forces de tension paradoxales. Ils nous permettent d’examiner la relation de caractère réciproque existant entre, d’une part, une approche plus empirique par l’analyse en profondeur des pratiques participatives (PP) plus spécifiques et, d’autre part, une compréhension conceptuelle de la mondialisation institutionnelle qui définit les tendances expansionnistes très générales des sociétés contemporaines. À l’aide du modèle de la transition organisationnelle (MTO), nous considérons que les PP intégrées à la gouverne des CLS sont potentiellement porteuses de changement organisationnel, dans le sens où elles sont la condition et la conséquence de nombreuses traductions stratégiques et systémiques essentiellement transformatrices. Or, pour qu’une telle transformation puisse s’accomplir, il est nécessaire de développer les compétences participatives pertinentes, ce qui confère au phénomène participatif la connotation d’apprentissage organisationnel de nouvelles formes d’action et d’intervention collectives. Notre modèle conceptuel semble fournir un ensemble de considérations épistémosociales fort intéressantes et très prometteuses permettant d’examiner en profondeur les dimensions nécessaires d’un renouvellement organisationnel de la participation dans le champ complexe de la santé publique internationale. Il permet de concevoir les interventions complexes comme des réseaux épistémiques de pratiques participatives (RÉPP) rassemblant des acteurs très diversifiés qui s’organisent autour d’un processus de conceptualisation transculturelle de connaissances ainsi que d’opérationnalisation intersectorielle des actions, et ce, par un ensemble de mécanismes d’instrumentalisation organisationnelle de l’apprentissage. De cette façon, le MTO ainsi que la notion de RÉPP permettent de mieux comprendre la création de passages incessants entre l’intégration locale des PP dans la gouverne des interventions complexes de la santé et des services sociaux – tels que les CLS –, et les processus plus larges de réorganisation démocratique de la santé publique dans le contexte global de la mondialisation institutionnelle. Cela pourrait certainement nous aider à construire collectivement l’expression réflexive et manifeste des valeurs démocratiques proposées dans la Déclaration d’Alma-Ata, publiée en 1978, lors de la première Conférence internationale sur les SSP. / In an age of the institutional globalization of modern societies, the confluence of a myriad of micro- and macro-contextual factors complicates the international socio-political arena. In this context, the integration of participatory values through the democratization processes of Public Health takes on the appearance of an organizational strategy promoting cohesion among a multitude of local and global initiatives. The constant renewal of intersectoral knowledge and the social perception of risk suggest an increased social awareness regarding the limits of technical competence of social and healthcare Systems. As a legitimate international actor in the management of modern health risks, Public Health creates participatory spaces that enable interaction of intersectoral actors and constantly changing and dynamic knowledge. It is indeed a strategy of the institutional “relocalisation” of collective action, aiming to restore trust in the level of reliability of international Public Health representatives who only partially meet the current needs of population security. In this context, Local Health Councils (LHC), implemented internationally as part of decentralized Primary Health Care (PHC) regional policies, represent participative spaces that involve countless paradoxical forces of tension. The LHC provides both an opportunity to examine the reciprocal relationship between an in-depth empirical analysis of specific participatory practices (PP), as well as a conceptual comprehension of the institutional globalization defining the general expansionist tendencies of modern societies. Using the organizational transition model (OTM), we postulate that the integration of PP into LHC governance is potentially associated with organizational change in creating both the conditions and the consequences of numerous strategic and systemic translations, which are essentially transformative. However, in order for this transformation to occur, relevant participative skills need to be developed. Consequently, this participative phenomenon takes on the shape of an organizational learning process allowing new forms of collective action and intervention to be accomplished. Our conceptual model offers a set of interesting and promising “epistemosocial” considerations for an in-depth examination of the dimensions essential for an organizational renewal of participation in the complex field of Global Health. Through the OTM, we conceive complex interventions as epistemic networks of participative practices (ENPP) composed of a wide range of actors organized around a double process of transcultural conceptualization of knowledge and inter-sector operationalization of action. This process is possible through a set of mechanisms of organizational instrumentation of learning. In this way, the OTM and the concept of ENPP allow for a better understanding of the unceasing transition between the local integration of PP in the governance of complex interventions in the field of health and social services – such as LCH – and the broader processes of democratic reorganization of Public Health in a global context of institutional globalization. This could certainly help us to collectively construct a reflexive and manifest expression of democratic values proposed in Alma-Ata Declaration published in 1978 during the first International Conference on PHC.

Os direitos humanos ao desenvolvimento e à saúde estão intimamente ligados, uma vez que não há processo de desenvolvimento sem a consolidação da saúde. Ainda, pode-se observar a influência do nível de desenvolvimento na saúde, por meio da incidência de doenças que tende a ser maior em regiões menos desenvolvidas. Esta pesquisa qualitativa centrou-se no questionamento sobre as conexões entre o exercício do direito à saúde e o desenvolvimento no município de Ribeirão Preto, enfocando o controle social, no âmbito do Conselho Municipal de Saúde. Apresenta, portanto, como objetivo geral descrever as interrelações entre o controle social desempenhado pelo Conselho Municipal de Saúde de Ribeirão Preto e o desenvolvimento local. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de triangulação de fontes de dados, através da análise documental das atas das reuniões do Conselho, da observação passiva nas reuniões e de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com os conselheiros. As entrevistas foram analisadas por meio das análises de conteúdo e temática. Os entrevistados revelaram que apesar do reconhecimento da população sobre a saúde como um direito, há baixa participação popular no Conselho. Dentre os fatores determinantes da baixa participação estão a falta de conhecimento e informação e a baixa divulgação das ações do Conselho. Ainda assim, foram observadas melhorias na saúde por meio da atuação do Conselho e os membros reconheceram a importância dessa atividade para o desenvolvimento do município e aumento da qualidade de vida da população. Os participantes do estudo admitiram, porém, que o exercício do controle social necessita de muitos avanços para chegar perto do considerado ideal, o que depende da atuação dos próprios conselheiros, visando melhorar a sua representatividade. Constatou-se que, embora o Conselho Municipal de Saúde de Ribeirão Preto seja reconhecido pelos conselheiros como um espaço de democratização que funciona, a institucionalização de espaços participativos não garante a participação popular e o controle social em saúde. Nesse sentido, este trabalho apresentou alternativas para a construção deste processo, como a maior disseminação de informações, a elaboração de um canal de comunicação com a população, alterações no regimento interno e a capacitação permanente dos conselheiros, como elementos essenciais para a busca de outros caminhos para o exercício efetivo do controle social e a garantia do direito à saúde e desenvolvimento local do município de Ribeirão Preto. / The rights for the development and health are closely related since there is no development process without consolidation of health. Furthermore, one can observe the influence of the level of development of health, by disease incidence tends to be higher in less developed regions. This qualitative study focused on questions about the connections between the exercise of the right to health and development in the municipality of Ribeirão Preto, focusing on social control, under the Municipal Health Council presents, so as a general objective describing the interrelationships between social control played by the Municipal Council of Health of the development site. Data were obtained through triangulation of data sources, through documentary analysis of the minutes of Board meetings, meetings of passive observation and semi-structured interviews with counselors. The interviews were analyzed through content analysis and thematic. Respondents revealed that despite the recognition of population health as a right, there is low public participation in the Council. Among the determinants of low participation are lack of knowledge and information dissemination and low shares of the Council. Still, we observed improvements in health through the work of the Council and members recognized the importance of this activity for the development of the municipality and increased quality of life. Study participants admitted, however, that the exercise of social control requires many advancements to come close to the considered ideal, which depends on the performance of the councilors themselves, to improve its representativeness. It was found that, although the Board of Health of Ribeirão Preto is recognized by the board as a space that works for democratization, institutionalization of participatory spaces not guarantee popular participation and social control in health. Accordingly, this work presents alternatives for the construction of this process, as the greatest dissemination of information, the development of a communication channel with the population, changes in the bylaws and the permanent training of counselors, as essential to the pursuit of other paths for the effective exercise of social control and guarantee the right to health and development site in the city of Ribeirão Preto.

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2009 / No presente estudo foi realizada uma análise da atuação do controle social em saúde do trabalhador no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, sobretudo, a partir da sua participação no Conselho Estadual de Saúde do Trabalhador. Reconstituiu-se a trajetória e as experiências consideradas mais significativas desse conselho, enquanto estratégia facilitadora da gestão democrática na definição e desenvolvimento das políticas de saúde do trabalhador no Estado. Coletaram-se informações nos registros e documentos existentes na Secretaria de Estado de Saúde a esse respeito e foram realizadas entrevistas com os gestores do Programa de Saúde do Trabalhador desse período e com alguns representantes do movimento sindical que participaram do Conselho. Na análise dessas informações constataram-se algumas particularidades dessa instância, cuja criação foi produto da mobilização de diversos profissionais de saúde, pesquisadores, técnicos de instituições públicas e representações sindicais mais combativas do estado na perspectiva de encontrar respostas para os problemas da área. A articulação desses atores sociais, diante de uma conjuntura política favorável, possibilitou progressos importantes em termos de melhoria das condições de trabalho, de implantação de mudanças tecnológicas nas empresas e avanços na legislação em setores como os da indústria naval, química, petroquímica, siderúrgica e metalúrgica. Conclui-se que o Conselho Estadual de Saúde do Trabalhador do Estado do Rio de Janeiro representou experiência marcante como referência nacional de participação social no planejamento, gestão e desenvolvimento de políticas públicas de saúde do trabalhador. / In the present study, the social control role at worker’s health in Rio de Janeiro was analyzed, above all, from his participation in the Worker’s Health County Council. The trajectory and the experiences regarded as more significant of this council were reconstituted, and considered as strategy facilitator of the democratic management in the definition and development of the Worker’s Health policies in the county. Information was collected in the records and documents existing in the Health State Bureau relating to the council procedures and interviews were performed with managers of the Worker’s Health Program and some syndicate actors who take part of the council. In the analysis of that information, there were some particularities of this institution, whose foundation was the product of the mobilization of various health professionals, researches, technicians of public institutions and syndicates representations more combative of the county in the perspective to search for solutions to problems of the area. The articulation of these social actors, in face of a favorable political conjuncture, enabled important progresses in terms of improvement of working conditions, implementation of technological changes in companies and advances in legislation in sectors such as shipbuilding, chemical, petrochemical, steel mill and metallurgy. We conclude that the Worker’s Health County Council of Rio de Janeiro State was a remarkable experience as a national reference of the social participation in the planning, management and development of public policies in worker’s health.
