Review

This entry, titled "Santé Collective," immediately suggests a broad exploration of collective or public health. The abstract, however, effectively narrows this scope, indicating a specific focus on the emergence and fundamental premises of the field of Collective Health *in Brazil*. This geographical and historical contextualization is crucial, promising an insightful examination of how this interdisciplinary domain developed within a specific national landscape, which can be particularly valuable for understanding health system evolution in developing countries and for comparative studies. A significant strength outlined in the abstract is the intention to delve into the contributions and challenges posed by the discipline of Health Anthropology within this Brazilian Collective Health context. This interdisciplinary approach is highly commendable, as it promises to move beyond purely epidemiological or biomedical perspectives. By integrating an anthropological lens, the entry is poised to offer a nuanced understanding of social, cultural, and political dimensions influencing health, illness, and healthcare practices, enriching the discourse surrounding Collective Health with critical insights into human experiences and systemic issues. Overall, this entry appears to be a focused and potentially impactful contribution to the literature on public health and medical anthropology. Scholars interested in the historical development of health fields, the interplay between social sciences and health policy, and specifically the Brazilian health context, will find this work particularly relevant. While the abstract does not detail the specific anthropological theories or methodologies to be employed, the mere commitment to exploring the "contributions and challenges" from this perspective indicates a promising critical engagement with the complexities of health at a collective level.
