Resumo
As inúmeras transformações socioespaciais advindas da expansão e consolidação desigual do Meio Técnico-Científico-Informacional desde o fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial tiveram efeito em todo o globo. Devido a essas transformações, o dengue se modificou, adaptando-se a esse novo meio. O aumento do número e do tamanho das cidades, que ocorreu de forma perversa, o rápido e intenso fluxo de pessoas e materiais e a degradação da saúde pública em todo mundo contribuíram para que essa doença se tornasse uma pandemia global em meados do século XX. No Brasil, ela retornou após 60 anos depois de erradicada, causando muitos problemas e a morte de várias pessoas. A hipótese do trabalho é que a distribuição e a incidência do dengue no Brasil foram, e estão sendo afetadas pelas transformações socioespaciais advindas da consolidação desigual do meio atual, que propiciou sua reemergência no território nacional e a emergência do dengue hemorrágico como um grande problema de saúde pública. O objetivo principal constitui em analisar a reemergência do dengue no Brasil e sua relação com as mudanças socioespaciais advindas da expansão desigual do Meio Técnico-Científico-Informacional e os processos de globalização no país, comparando diversas escalas geográficas. Também foi analisado os principais determinantes em escala nacional, bem como uma proposta de tipologia do dengue no Brasil, elecando as principais variáveis explicativas da doença no território
The several socio-spatial transformations brought by the uneven expansion and consolidation of the technical-scientific-information environment since the Second World War had an effect in the whole world. Due to these transformations, dengue has changed to adapt to this new environment. The disease's etiological agent is a virus, and the main vector is an urban mosquito with preference of human blood and extremely adapt to the social space. The perverse way that the growth of cities occurred, in both, number and size, the intense and fast flow of peoples and goods and the degradation of public health in whole world contributed to make that this disease became pandemic worldwide in the middle of the twenty century. In Brazil, it returns sixty years after been eradicated, causing many problems and the death of several people. The work hypothesis is that distribution and incidence of dengue was, and still is been affecting by socio-spatial transformations brought by the uneven consolidation of the actual environment, that has provided it's re-emergency in national territory. The main objective is to analyze the re-emergency of dengue in Brazil and its relations with the socio-spatial changes brought by the uneven expansion of the technical-scientific-information environment and the globalization's process in the country, comparing several geographical scales
