En esta institución se desarrollaron conceptos acerca de la Medicina Social en el Perú en la primera mitad de siglo, lo que sentaría las bases de la naciente Salud Pública. Se describe el ambiente político e intelectual de la época, señalando que la llegada de las ideas eugenésicas a comienzos de siglo XX encuentra en la República Aristocrática condiciones favorables para su desarrollo; ideas que se articularon con un naciente movimiento médico social que buscaba la prevención en el ámbito poblacional. Se esperaba así, evitar el deterioro de la salud de los peruanos, y la "degeneración" de sus rasgos hereditarios. Esto se plasmó en el planteamiento de diversas medidas de control poblacional, que llevaron a la creación de una institución encargada de velar por la marcha de dichas medidas.Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Medicina Humana1999-03-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/anales/article/view/451310.15381/anales.v60i1.4513Anales de la Facultad de Medicina; Vol. 60 No. 1 (1999); 55-60Anales de la Facultad de Medicina; Vol. 60 Núm. 1 (1999); 55-601609-94191025-5583reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstname:Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstacron:UNMSMspahttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/anales/article/view/4513/3595Derechos de autor 1999 Walter Mendoza de Souza, Oscar Martínezhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.csi.unmsm:article/45132020-04-13T20:34:30Z
