Abstract:
:In this paper the paths taken by developing countries to improve the health and well-being of their populations in a context of diminishing resources is discussed. Emphasis is placed on Latin American countries and the objective is to clarify the changing nature of the relationship between health and social well-being in the 1970s and 1980s. In the second part of the paper three viable and different political scenarios to confront this problem are presented: 1) survival without well-being; 2) survival and eradication of extreme poverty, and 3) survival, eradication of extreme poverty, and selective reconversion of the poor.
