RESUMO

Abstract This article analyzes the practice and professional status of Colombian homeopaths in the twentieth century, based on applications for licenses in the “Teguas” series in the Archivo General de la Nación. Within the historical context of the practice of medicine in Colombia, it studies homeopathic practice within the framework of the debate between licensed and permitted medicine. In that context, the field of homeopathy was subordinate to university medicine and homeopaths were a group of practitioners who were neither homogeneous nor organized, but characterized by their shared struggle to become “entitled” to practice, and their advocacy of professional status through constant litigation against official reprimands.
