Socio-environmental vulnerability of the ophidic accident in the context of public policies
Journal Title: Prohominum - Year 2024, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
This article is an advance of a doctoral thesis and an academic activity on snakebite; as an event it goes through imperceptible legal loopholes as a consequence of the environmental impact and leads to a social process. However, when preparing the State of the Art, there is a lack of background and research references on the subject. For this purpose, the objective: to analyze snakebite from the socio-environmental vulnerability in the context of public policies. From this perspective, published case studies describe snakebite from poisoning through health determinants, whose social basis of vulnerability is labor-productive, ignoring environmental and occupational causality factors; population displacement and generation of neglected disease due to the lack of antivenin. Thus, snakebite as a public health problem, from the practical exercise, does not apply critical analysis to the problem; it does not identify a social process; nor does it build a political reality, because it does not categorize the population as affected and/or aggressor of the environment. Such a situation prevents the snakebite from being scheduled for public policiesin the argumentative political field of social and environmental justice, ethical-moral principles and values of rational representation; since, for discussion it does not depend on expositive protagonists. Methodology: qualitative research, descriptive level, field, studies cases, interpretive analytical paradigm; own instrument; applies interview, population and opinionated sample; validates information by triangulation of data and expert opinion. Conclusion: it is sought to include snakebite in the public policy agenda related to socio-environmental vulnerability; modify the practical analysis scheme to critical-theoretical; develop alternatives to discuss with governmental and non-governmental actors, social interest groups, and individual, collective and academic, since snakebite as a social process is a problem for everyone
