The article examines divergences and interfaces between the fields of Physical Education (PE) and Public Health (PH) in the Brazilian context, highlighting tensions in the supremacy for scientific authority and competence in line with the concepts of 'scientific field' and 'nuclei of knowledge'. Understanding PH as an institutionalized, legitimized and scientifically consolidated field with three fundamental nuclei: Epidemiology; Social and Human Sciences; and Policy, Planning and Management; we show its approximation to the PE field, resulting in specific knowledge and practices of PE in PH. By stressing risks of a sedentary lifestyle, Epidemiology was the first nucleus of linkage to this new field. Nevertheless, reflections from the Social Sciences broaden the understanding of the PE/PH objects of study by recognizing the multidimensional nature of the corporal culture related to health. However, the Policies nucleus only took shape when physical activity became a priority in a set of policies and programs to combat chronic diseases and promote health. Tensions between the biological and social paradigms define the configuration of the fields and represent a major challenge to be overcome by PE/PH, albeit the critical benchmark in health offers a promising way for overcoming it.
本文探讨了巴西背景下体育教育(PE)与公共卫生(PH)领域之间的差异与联系,依据“科学领域”和“知识核心”的概念,突出了科学权威和能力至上方面的紧张关系。将公共卫生理解为一个具有三个基本核心的制度化、合法化且科学巩固的领域:流行病学;社会与人文科学;以及政策、规划与管理;我们展示了它与体育教育领域的近似性,这在公共卫生中产生了体育教育的特定知识和实践。通过强调久坐不动生活方式的风险,流行病学是与这个新领域建立联系的首个核心。然而,社会科学的思考通过认识到与健康相关的身体文化的多维性质,拓宽了对体育教育/公共卫生研究对象的理解。不过,政策核心直到身体活动在一系列抗击慢性病和促进健康的政策与项目中成为优先事项时才得以形成。生物学和社会范式之间的紧张关系界定了这些领域的构成,并且是体育教育/公共卫生要克服的一项重大挑战,尽管健康方面的关键基准为克服这一挑战提供了一条充满希望的途径。
