| Summary: | Mental health condenses and questions not only conditions related to the field of health but also corresponds to the subjective translation of social, political, and economic conditions with which it is linked. The chilean social upheaval, feminist revolt, and currently the pandemic have revealed pre-existing social fractures, inequities, and exclusions. Similarly, mental health as a psychosocial issue demands approaches that integrate social life with the singularities of subjective experience. This book is the result of a research process on mental health in the context of university life and includes interdisciplinary and multisectoral approaches in an effort to address the issue in its complexity. The biographical and subjective trajectories of students at the University of Chile are joined by the voices of actors and actresses who, from their institutional and professional roles, provide an account of a multiple and diverse reality, as well as the need to collectively address a problem that concerns everyone. Hence, the relevance of recognizing and complementing, through the contribution of the Social Sciences and situated experiences, the possibility of thinking differently (innovation) about a problem often co-opted by exclusively epidemiological perspectives. Because it is rather about recognizing in the approach to student mental health a political demand - and an opportunity - at both the level of specific preventive and therapeutic practices, and within the framework of institutional and community-based plans and programs to be implemented. La salud mental condensa e interroga no solamente condiciones relativas al campo de la salud, sino que corresponde a la traducción subjetiva de condiciones sociales, políticas, económicas con las cuales se encuentra ligada. El estallido social, la revuelta feminista y actualmente la pandemia han dado cuenta de las fracturas sociales, inequidades y exclusiones pre-existentes; del mismo modo, la salud mental como problema psicosocial reclama de abordajes que integren la vida social con las singularidades propias de la experiencia subjetiva. Este libro es el resultado de un proceso de investigación sobre salud mental en el contexto de la vida universitaria e incluye aproximaciones interdisciplinarias y multisectoriales en un esfuerzo por abordar la problemática en su complejidad. A las trayectorias biográficas y subjetivas de estudiantes de la Universidad de Chile se suman las voces de actores y actoras que, desde su rol institucional y profesional, dan cuenta de una realidad múltiple y diversa así como de la necesidad de abordar comunitariamente un problema que concierne a todos y todas. De ahí la pertinencia de reconocer y complementar a través de la contribución de las Ciencias Sociales y de las experiencias situadas la posibilidad de pensar de otro modo (innovación) un problema a menudo coaptado por perspectivas exclusivamente epidemiológicas. Porque se trata más bien de reconocer en el abordaje de la salud mental estudiantil una exigencia -y una oportunidad- política, tanto a nivel de las prácticas preventivas y terapéuticas específicas, como en el marco de planes y programas a implementar institucional y comunitariamente. |
