RESUMO
Trata-se de um ensaio de natureza teórica que objetiva defender uma concepção de justiça social voltada aos funcionamentos dos indivíduos, articulando a discussão da justiça com o debate sobre equidade em saúde. Na introdução, são discutidas as circunstâncias da justiça, abordando a questão da escassez dos recursos no campo da saúde. No primeiro item, analisa-se a noção da equidade em saúde, apresentando os principais enfoques abordados, em particular o conceito de equidade em saúde proposto por Margaret Whitehead, amplamente utilizado na saúde coletiva. No segundo item, apresenta-se, brevemente, a Abordagem das Capacitações desenvolvida por Amartya Sen e Martha Nussbaum, que recuperam a noção aristotélica de funcionamento. Ao final, critica-se essa abordagem e defende-se a Perspectiva dos Funcionamentos (PF), proposta por Maria Clara Dias, aplicada ao campo da saúde. Dessa forma, os concernidos da justiça são sistemas funcionais e o que se quer igualar para propósitos de justiça é a integridade funcional dos seres vivos. São apresentadas algumas vantagens dessa perspectiva, considerada aquela que melhor preenche os requisitos de uma concepção de justiça extensiva a todos no Brasil.
ABSTRACT
Abstract This is a theoretical article that aims to defend a conception of social justice facing functionings of individuals, articulating the justice discussion with the debate on health equity. In the introduction, we discuss the circumstances of justice, addressing the issue of lack of resources in the health field. The first item analyzes the concept of health equity, presenting the main approaches used, in particular, the concept of health equity proposed by Margaret Whitehead, widely used in public health. The second item presents briefly the Capability Approach developed by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, which recover the Aristotelian notion of operation. Finally, this approach is criticized and the Perspective of Functionings (PF), proposed by Maria Clara Dias, applied to the field of health, is defined. Therefore, the justice concerned are functional systems and what we want to match for justice purposes is the functional integrity of living beings. Some advantages of this perspective-considered the one that best meets the requirements of a broad conception of justice to all individuals in Brazil-are exposed.
