Focusing on the case of Argentina and based on a review of existing literature and empirical data, this chapter proposes avenues for a social health research agenda on using liquid silicones and/or other illegal materials to better understand the pathologies and complications related to such uses, particularly by transgender people. Health-related risks and harms linked to the use of injectable liquid silicones are analyzed as social issues. Social sciences take into account a vulnerability and human rights approach that underlines social, economic, and political structures and resources as key factors to explain practices, risks, and harms.

摘要

Focusing on the case of Argentina and based on a review of existing literature and empirical data, this chapter proposes avenues for a social health research agenda on using liquid silicones and/or other illegal materials to better understand the pathologies and complications related to such uses, particularly by transgender people. Health-related risks and harms linked to the use of injectable liquid silicones are analyzed as social issues. Social sciences take into account a vulnerability and human rights approach that underlines social, economic, and political structures and resources as key factors to explain practices, risks, and harms.
