Resumen
CASTRO, Roberto. Genesis and practice of authoritarian medical habitus in Mexico. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2014, vol.76, n.2, pp.167-197. ISSN 2594-0651.
The authoritarian medical habitus in Mexico begins during the years of medical school training, residency and specialization. Elements of this process include the hierarchies of the profession, gender inequality and punishment as a teaching resource. This article describes the functioning of the medical habitus on the basis of observations in delivery rooms in public hospitals. The solution to the problem of human rights violations of women in health services would involve a restructuring of the medical field and the development of users' citizenship.
