The problem of children medicalization in the context of educational failure: acritical review of the biomedical model

The goal of this paper is to offer a critical revision of the practice that derives fromsome types of knowledge that, under the claims of science, operate as absolute truths whenconfronted with failure in the context of school teaching. This is the issue we address in thispaper, namely, the problem of seeking a solution to childrenÂ’s problems by medicalizing them.The issue is not created by biological causes but a multiplicity of factors rooted in society.

KEY WORDS: Medicalization · Biomedical model · Educational context · Paradigm of complexity.
