En un primer momento, se realiza una genealogía de este saber milenario, desde sus orígenes (registrados) hasta la actualidad, con énfasis en los encuentros con la llamada &#8220;medicina occidental&#8221; y en cómo su llegada terminó por fortalecer el saber nativo y crear una &#8220;nueva geografía&#8221;. En segundo lugar, se exploran las diversas formas como los ciudadanos chinos se apropian de ambos sistemas médicos en la China contemporánea. Por último, se hace un acercamiento a la expansión global de este saber, por medio de su comoditización o como recurso potencial de soft power. De esta forma, se pretende colaborar en un campo poco explorado desde las ciencias sociales, sobre este corpus de prácticas y conocimientos, su dinamismo y su constante modificación.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: This article explores three components of traditional Chinese medicine, both locally and globally. First, the text provides a genealogy of this ancient knowledge, starting from its (recorded) origins and continuing to the present day, emphasizing the encounters with so-called Western medicine, highlighting how the arrival of the latter ended up strengthening the native knowledge and creating a &#8220;new geography.&#8221; Second, it explores the various ways in which Chinese citizens appropriate both medical systems in contemporary China. The article concludes with an analysis of the global expansion of this knowledge, through its commoditization or as a potential resource of soft power, thus contributing to a field rarely explored by the social sciences by examining these practices and areas of knowledge, their dynamism and constant modification.]]></p></abstract>
