Abstract

This dissertation aims to identify the configuration of the right to health in the health legislation of Argentina and Uruguay. It starts with the assumption that there is a tendency to return to universalstandards of health care, after the exhaustion of the measures put into effect during the period of reform of national health services, according to the principles derived from the neo-liberal ideologies.To collect the data used to document research on laws, proposals, reports and other official documents related to the theme. The findings indicate a strong tendency to return to more universalstandards, while still bound to work. A common point observed in the two countries was the democratization of decision making on the national health policy, with the inclusion of different sectors of civil society. Finally, I present some final considerations of the research in order to contribute to the knowledge about the changeson the right to health, which has a tendency to reverse the law only in the liberal perspective
