Abstract
"El propósito de este artículo es revisar las ideas centrales del pensamiento del Dr. Abraham Horwitz (1910-2000), quien se dedicó en cuerpo y alma a la salud pública, tanto de Chile como de América Latina y el Caribe. Este trabajo aborda su pensamiento desde una perspectiva contemporánea. Este es justamente nuestro desafío. Aunque vivimos en un mundo diferente al de los años sesenta, con grandes progresos en materia de salud, aún existen enormes brechas entre países y grupos sociales, además de grandes transformaciones sociodemográficas y económicas con alto impacto social" ["The purpose of this article is to review the main ideas of doctor Abraham Horwitz’s thinking (1910-2000), who dedicated all his life to public health, both in Chile and Latin America and Caribbean. This paper focuses his thought from a contemporary perspective. This is precisely our challenge. Although we live in a different world from the sixties, with great progress in health, there are still huge gaps between countries and social groups, as well as large demographic and economic transformations with high social impact"]
