Abstract

The relationship between violence and health was examined from a psychoanalytical perspective, showing why the conditions of violence, being structural, become the main obstacle to healthy living conditions in the present scientific era. The importance and reliance on individual and community positive attitudes when implementing health strategies are shown, emphasizing that these attitudes are an essential requirement for the recovery of health conditions. This conclusion does not ignore the likelihood that the principles of health strategies are often themselves questionable within the structural framework of violence.
