ZUNIGA FAJURI, ALEJANDRA. DWORKIN'S DISTRIBUTIVE THEORY AND THE RIGHT TO HEALTH CARE. RDUCN [online]. 2013, vol.20, n.1, pp.323-338. ISSN 0718-9753.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-97532013000100013.

This essay reviews the health distribution theory of the American philosopher Ronald Dworkin, which is developed under the premise of reducing the expenses about health through a service based on the principle of individual responsibility. The result of this process can support the creation of a "minimum level of health security system" in which people ensure themselves following a prudence principle that allows the restraint and the guarantee of a basic health care.

Palabras clave : Health care; personal responsibility; distributive justice.
