The present writing deals with the concept of "alienation" in the work of Frantz Fanon (1925-1961). The objective is to analyze how this concept is presented by the author and what possible pitfalls and analytical clues they leave for the study of racism. In general, Frantz Fanon seems to point out the limits of essentialist and restricted approaches to the subjective plane and offer an analytical framework that is permanently critical and oriented towards the contextual, diverse and contingent character of racism. In order to appreciate the currentness of Fanon's criticisms, I take advantage of his theoretical-conceptual and political framework to examine the subtleties surrounding the relationship between health and race.
