ARRIAGADA, Nayadeth. Identity and political subjectivity in the movement for dignified health in Chiloé. Polis [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.44, pp.263-287. ISSN 0718-6568. http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-65682016000200012.
This article aims to describe the connection between political subjectivization and construction of identity of the people involved in the “movimiento por la salud digna” (movement for dignified health) in Chiloé, occurred in 2013. The results show that the subjectivization processes are closely linked with the identity of these people, to the extent that identity is experienced as the movement between a negative assertion: the nostalgic experience for a lost past -related to shared values- and a positive assertion: the commitment -closely associated to the desire of being an actor, that characterizes subjectivization-. Additionally it is possible to establish that subjectivization is a political exercise of de-identification and subsequent re-identification, due to the understanding that the health problem is not an individual issue, nor that it occurs only in this particular territory. On the contrary, that it is a collective and generalized problem in the whole country, connected to a political adversary: the Chilean State.
