“…This 'Commonwealth critique' as Frank (1998) terms it, of health promotion and disease prevention (associated with the work of Armstrong 1995, Nettleton 1992, Lupton 1995, broadly occurs within a framework of governance. In such a framework, not only are populations increasingly subject to informal and formal forms of surveillance (such as various kinds of population screening, immunisation programmes, work place health 'check-ups'), but individuals themselves are encouraged and expected to subject themselves to scrutiny, and to incorporate a 'duty to be well' (Herzlich and Pierret 1987, Greco 1993, Lupton 1995 into their everyday repertoires. Hence, participation in preventive initiatives is produced through a specific form of power which encourages individuals to take responsibility for their own health, ensuring social regulation through individuals' own self-discipline (Turner 1997).…”

“…A partir das reflexões de Greco 45 , assinalamos dois pontos relevantes no que tange ao peso moral da distinção somático x psíquico. A autora chama atenção para o status hierárquico inferior das condições sem origem orgânica clara, indicando que, nesses casos, elas perpetuam o estigma da doença mental.…”

“…A desautorização da experiência da doença conduz ao sofrimento e ao estigma, já que a causa dos sintomas é hipoteticamente atribuída à depressão, estresse ou alguma outra forma de transtorno psicológico, ou mesmo fingimento, exagero ou falta de autocontrole do paciente. Shorter (1992) Em um contexto mais geral, analisando-se o status hierarquicamente inferior das moléstias sem origem orgânica clara, faz-se interessante retomar o argumento de Grecco (1993), para quem a doença somática se diferenciou da da mente pela irrelevância da dimensão volicional na compreensão da primeira e pela centralidade desse entendimento na segunda. Disso decorre que as doenças sem substrato anatomofisiológico ou evidência lesional são compreendidas como um problema moral, como algo que diz respeito à falta de autocontrole do sofredor.…”
