Resumen
LOPEZ RAMIREZ, Tomás y SEVILLA MUNOZ, Norma Angélica. Cancer and its inexorable relation with death: an analysis of the connection between its incidence and the information acquired in the society of the 21st century. Dilemas contemp. educ. política valores [online]. 2021, vol.8, n.spe4, 00058. Epub 20-Sep-2021. ISSN 2007-7890. https://doi.org/10.46377/dilemas.v8i.2812.
One of the main health challenges is disease prevention. In the information society, there is a great possibility of managing knowledge about cancer preventive care; however, the initiatives have been subject to an epistemic triangle proposed by this research: death, incidence, and projected information. The present study shows the relationship of these three aspects from the content analysis of their incidence in Guerrero and a survey applied to a representative sample of the population. The results describe the way in which these three elements interact to configure a social construct of cancer as part of an uncertain and inevitable destiny under a near-death gaze.
