ABSTRACT
The objective of this article was to offer a critical view of public health management through Social Organizations, understanding them as part of a larger process of dismantling of social protection in a context of strengthening of capital. The text considers the interaction between State and capital, the international and national criticism of the Social States, and mainly, several problems intrinsic to Social Organizations. Methodologically, it revised and organized relevant literature and legislation. It is concluded that this management mechanism is the privatization of public health, contributing to the expansion of the private health sector, to the detriment of the public system.
