CABANES, J.. The current health system and the spirit of may 68. Neurocirugía [online]. 2009, vol.20, n.3, pp.298-299. ISSN 1130-1473.

Forty years after the '68 May revolt, we have thought of interest to retrieve part of the revolutionary ideology concerning the rol of medical practice in the society they would to change. In essence they said: the current organization of health care, although masked by mysticism, provides political support to the dominant class and favours socio-economic exploitation. Relevant features of medical structures, the hospital, the traditional medical mentality, the biologistic paradigm, etc. reinforce the hierarchical order in the capitalist society.

Keywords : Mayo 68; Medicina y sociedad; Capitalismo y medicina.
