RESUMENEl propósito de este texto es doble. Por un lado, haremos un pequeño recorrido, inevitablemente incompleto, por lo que ha sido la historia de las emociones en España y Latinoamérica. En segundo lugar, argumentaremos a favor de una orientación metodológica centrada en la historia de las experiencias subjetivas y, más en particular en este caso, en la historia cultural del bienestar. Defendemos, por último, que el proyecto de cooperación entre nuestro grupo de Madrid y un equipo de médicos, psicólogos y psiquiatras de Valencia en torno a la enfermedad de la fibromialgia, constituye un buen ejemplo de relación cooperativa entre las humanidades y las ciencias de la salud en el siglo XXI.Palabras clave: Emociones, Experiencia, América Latina, Bienestar, Fibromialgia.
Histories of Wellbeing. From the History of the Emotions to the Politics of the Experience
ABSTRACTThe aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand, we intend to produce a short review on the history of the emotions in Spain and Latin America. On the other hand, we will argue in favor of a methodological approach, focused on the history of subjective experiences and, specifically in this case, on the cultural history of wellbeing. We will conclude that the cooperative project developed by our group of Madrid and a Valencian team of doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists specialized in the study and treatment of fibromyalgia is a good example of how cooperative endeavor between the Humanities and the Health Sciences in the XXI century.
