RANGEL FLORES, Yesica Yolanda. The historical-narrative theoretical model: A proposal to study the health risk. Index Enferm [online]. 2014, vol.23, n.1-2, pp.70-74. ISSN 1699-5988. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1132-12962014000100015.
The risk has been historically object of study in the health sector, however, still, it prevails theoretical and methodological approaches that mainly focus on arithmetically measuring risk, thus failing to analyze socio-cultural and political conditions prevailing in their contexts, failing to in analizing the power relations of inequality and social inequity which leverage vulnerabilities. The article's objective is to expose the "historical-narrative theoretical model" as a framework within which to study the risk in the social complexity of individuals and in that sense, it helps to understand the complex social response that subjects engage within the threats of their contexts, sometimes maintaining a sense of subjective immunity against diseases, other times as well they assume theriselves vulnerable or they build stigmas regarding particular types of diseases.
