FERNANDEZ, Julia e BERNARDO, Ailen. HEALTH-FAMILY- POPULATION AGING, A THEME THAT CALLS THE ATTENTION OF SOCIAL SCIENCES. Revista Chakiñan [online]. 2017, n.2, pp.14-22. ISSN 2550-6722.
This paper only intends an approach to an edge of the problem, which in recent decades demands attention, and a diligent and purposeful look of various sectors of the society, especially in Cuba. The work presents the main theoretical paradigms and schools of thought that have studied the family, the definitions of health, and the relation among them. The results of research done on these issues are also systematized, and constraints and theoretical contributions of each proposal are analyzed. An analysis of the main theoretical traditions on family-related health is carried out, and for this aim, a definition of family is given. Methods of obtaining information at theoretical level were used, and the settled goal is to systemize the theoretical aspects that have been offered from social sciences to understand the role of the family and the sociological approach to health in the community studies. All this through consultation of current texts related to the subject. The interest of the authors, beyond the declared aim, is to draw attention to the social responsibility of the family and the community at large with the issue of health, in a time when Cuba is aging and needs a proactive look to face this challenge.
