SUS: from the Loss of Radical Democracy to New Developmentalism
Abstract
This study places Brazilian healthcare policy in context, specifically the implementation of the Single Healthcare System (SUS) in the 1990s and 2000. Its purpose is to reflect on the direction that healthcare policy took, based on the implementation of SUS, using as references the work goals that the Healthcare Reform Movement was able to institutionalize in the Constitution of 1988 and in the organic healthcare laws. The premise that guided the reflections of this paper is that in the 1990s there was a loss of democraticradicality and a rise in neoliberal policies and in the first decade of the new century this loss of democratic radicality continued and combined with a new developmentist perspective.
