Embodiment. Concept to understand the relations between the human body state and political body. Talks about how we can biologically incorporate material and social world in we live, from the intrauterine life to the death. Its corollary is that there is no aspect of our biology that can be understood without history knowing and individual and social forms life.

Ways of embodiment. Structured simultaneously by: a)Power social organization, property and structures of production, consumption and reproduction. b)Biological limitations and possibilities, as have been conformed in species evolution history, ecological context and individual histories, that is to say, trajectories of biological and social development.

Human right's law defines what the governments can or cannot do and what governments must do, to respect, protect and fulfill theirs obligations with the citizens. Health and human rights stimulates how the fulfillment of human rights promotes health, but also how their violations can damage health.

Social justice (SJ). Factors that allow human rights violation or that maintain DDHH respect, protection and fulfillment are supported by a theoretical frame of social justice. SJ analyses who benefits and who is harmed by the economic situation, oppression, discrimination, inequality and degradation of natural resources. These two theoretical marks (DDHH and SJ) provide concepts to analyze the SDH and to guide actions to create just and sustainable societies
