Campo jurídico y campo médico: algunas analogías y diferencias

Abstract

The work aims to analyze theoretical reflection points from Bourdieu's perspective in the field of law and in the medical field. Pierre Bourdieu, tangentially problematized the field of health, that is why we believe a contribution is necessary in the study of the health field. A priori of an empirical investigation, a greater number of analogies are detected than differences between the two social spaces. Perhaps, this situation finds an answer based on the unavoidable presence of the State, such as “metafield”. Due to the historicity of the legal field and the health system, it is concluded that it would be interesting to carry out an empirical approach to give a detailed account of how both spaces work, thought from the theory of Bourdieu's fields.
