Description
Critical
Medical Anthropology presents inspiring work from scholars doing
and engaging with ethnographic research in or from
Latin America, addressing themes that are central to contemporary Critical Medical Anthropology
(CMA). This includes issues of inequality, embodiment of history, indigeneity,
non-communicable diseases, gendered violence, migration, substance abuse,
reproductive politics and judicialisation, as these relate to health.
The collection of ethnographically
informed research, including original theoretical contributions, reconsiders the
broader relevance of CMA perspectives for addressing current global healthcare challenges from
and of Latin America. It includes work spanning four countries in Latin America
(Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala and Peru) as well as the trans-migratory contexts they connect
and are defined by. By drawing on diverse social practices, it addresses challenges of
central relevance to medical anthropology and global health, including reproduction and
maternal health, sex work, rare and chronic diseases, the pharmaceutical industry and
questions of agency, political economy, identity, ethnicity,and human rights.'Critical Medical Anthropology offers thought-provoking interventions to understandings of health, illness and healthcare. It extends a legacy of critical anthropological research, inviting and stimulating south-north dialogue, while generating inspiring new thinking at the intersections of health, social justice, human rights and political economy.'- Ciara Kierans, University of Liverpool
