Resulta irónico pensar, que los académicos e historiadores dominicanos en su visión general sobre la historia de la vida republicana de la nación, solamente reconozcan los siguientes períodos históricos; a saber: a).- Primera República del 1844; b).- Segunda República del 1865; c).- Tercera República del 1924; y d).- Cuarta República del 1966 hasta nuestros días presentes.. Ignorar en los anales de la histórica de la nación dominicana, el proceso político de la reconstrucción de la vida republicana, es ignorar el resurgimiento de la vida republicana, que conocemos como la Cuarta República comprendido en el período 1962-1963. Por Tanto, el Proyecto Político la Sexta República, es la única oportunidad que tiene el pueblo soberano de conquistar y restablecer el ordenamiento jurídico y los derechos conculcados en la Constitución del año 1963, mediante la Reconstrucción de un proyecto Nación definido en el contrato social proclamado en la "Sexta República".

The book was oriented towards achieving two main objectives. The first of them was to create a description of the main changes that have been made to the system since the beginning of the 2018-2024 Administration in Mexico. The diversity of the reforms and their scope make it difficult for the population to follow up on them and know how their right to health protection will be guaranteed. Thus, understanding the impact and extension of the reforms was one of the priorities of this study. Consequently, it was sought to develop a consultation document that allows identifying the current state of the SNS. The World Health Organization (who) has pointed out that health systems comprise all the institutions, organizations and resources used to produce actions aimed at improving health. Its performance can be measured based on its ability to respond to the needs of the population through actions such as increasing equality in access to health, reducing health risks and protecting individuals from the financial consequences caused by hight costs deseases. In this way, it is imperative that health systems have an efficient design that allows guaranteeing the protection of the right to health.
