GOMES, Ivan Marcelo; FERNANDEZ VAZ, Alexandre  e  ASSMANN, Selvino José. On Fights and Defenses Regarding the Body in Liquid Modernity: the Radicalization of Privatized Advice for Healthy Individual. Educ. fís. cienc. [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 2314-2561.

This text is part of a broader study addressing the development of discourses on healthy living in modernity. Based on Zygmunt Bauman's sociology, we aim at interpreting how concerns about health and body care are widespread in contemporary society. The central argument in this paper is that there is, in these demands, an intersection of scientific pretensions and a crusade in the name of a "correct" lifestyle.
