Resumen
Sobre la base de materiales originales, provenientes de entrevistas abiertas, extensas y recurrentes, este trabajo se propone analizar las relaciones entre la biomedicina y las terapias alternativas, a partir de las perspectivas de los especialistas que comparten un mismo espacio institucional. Distinguimos diversas perspectivas en función de sus intereses, experiencias personales y la formación recibida: 1) Biomédicos: a) motivaciones previas resultantes de trayectorias individuales de búsquedas de salud; b) interés por brindar otras opciones terapéuticas, manteniendo el control de la práctica terapéutica alternativa al subsumirla a la lógica biomédica y, c) consideración de ofertas alternativas como paliativos ineficaces y peligrosos para la salud de los pacientes. 2) Especialistas alternativos: a) interés en visibilizar su práctica y legitimarla al ubicarse como terapeutas en un espacio público y oficial, y b) interés por conservar los sentidos de su práctica mediante estrategias de ocultamiento y manejo de diversos discursos de acuerdo al público al que se dirigen. Concluimos que existe una pluralidad de situaciones que manifiestan distintas motivaciones entre los especialistas biomédicos y alternativos, configurándose un campo heterogéneo en el que los sentidos, los alcances y los límites de la práctica terapéutica se negocian cotidianamente.
Based on original materials from open-ended interviews and fieldwork in Hospitals, the purpose of this study is to analyse the relations between biomedicine and alternative therapies, from the point of view of the specialists in both fields who share the same institutional environment. We distinguish different perspectives according to their interests, personal experiences, and studies. 1) Physicians: a) existence of a previous motivation resulting from an individual search for health; b) interest in offering the sufferer other therapeutic options, keeping the alternative therapy practice controlled by subsuming it under the biomedical logic; and c) those who consider these options to be ineffective palliatives and health hazards. 2) Alternative therapies specialists: a) show an interest in making their practice visible and legitimising it by placing themselves as therapists working in a public and official institution, and b) show an interest in preserving the sense of their practice through the use of hiding strategies and the use of different discourses depending on who they address. We conclude that there is a diversity of circumstances that show different motivations, shaping a heterogeneous field in which the sense, scope and limits are negotiated daily.
