Download or read book Antropologia de la Enfermedad Estudio Etnologico de los Sistemas de Representaciones Etiologicas y Terapeuticas en la Sociedad Occidental Contempora written by François Laplantine and published by Ediciones Del Sol. This book was released on 1999 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro constituye un serio intento de clasificar las formas elementales de la enfermedad y la curacion, a fin de construir modelos teoricos y operativos a mitad de camino entre tipologias como las de Forster o Murdock y las estructuras que persigue Levi-Strauss. En su busqueda de las representaciones que organizan los discursos sobre la salud, el autor no vacila en juntar la biomedicina y la literatura. La base empirica y teorica de sus investigaciones son las entrevistas que mantuvo con medicos generalistas y con enfermos, las obras medicas que incluyen las terapias alternativas destinadas al gran publico y filmes famosos y obras literarias de escritores como Proust, Celine o Mann, entre otros muchos que abordaron la tematica de la enfermedad. Laplantine arroja nuevas luces sobre los modelos etiologicos y terapeuticos, indaga en las relaciones entre la enfermedad y lo sagrado, apelando para ello tanto a la antropologia medica y religiosa como a las representaciones de la enfermedad como castigo, o incluso como bien deseado, y a la curacion como recompensa o gracia divina. La antropologia de la enfermedad es una disciplina reciente que abre ricas perspectivas en los estudios culturales e incorpora categorias de analisis de las que no se podra prescindir en el futuro. En ese campo la obra de FranC'ois Laplantine sobresale por lo exhaustivo de sus investigaciones y la originalidad de sus aportes. Su rigurosa formacion y su ya vasta obra publicada (unos 14 volumenes) le han asegurado un sitio eminente en la antropologia francesa y de toda Europa. Con esta obra consolida, sin duda, su prestigio.

This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Libro introductorio a la antropologia aplicada al campo de la salud, la enfermedad y los sistemas de cuidados. Es una reflexion que surge al hilo de nuestro heterogeneo espacio europeo, en el que convivimos con personas de diversos origenes, predominantemente de Africa, Hispanoamerica y Asia. En este panorama, se hace necesario que nuestros profesionales -en general- y quienes trabajan en el campo de la salud -en particular- sean conscientes de esta multiculturalidad. Debemos conocer la importancia de la cultura, y las diferencias culturales con otros pueblos para poder ser respetuosos con las personas, sus creencias y sus costumbres; y la Antropologia aplicada a este campo nos puede ayudar en esta tarea de comprension y de interaccion. Con este manual introductorio pretendemos que el lector pueda comprender que es la Cultura y que es la Antropologia -desde un punto de vista tanto conceptual como historico-, y su aplicacion, especialmente, en el campo de la salud. En este sentido, nos ocuparemos de los sistemas de cuidados, y reflexionaremos sobre la aplicacion de los metodos etnograficos a la psiquiatria y a la enfermeria.

Download or read book Critical Medical Anthropology written by Jennie Gamlin and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente artículo aborda el tema de la salud intercultural. Para ello se revisan algunos de los principales planteamientos que en nuestro medio dieron origen a acciones que tenían como objetivo disminuir la brecha en los daños a la salud entre la población indígena y la población en general, y que se dieron a partir del indigenismo y, en menor medida, de los programas que privilegiaron la ampliación de la cobertura de los servicios. El trabajo busca construir una propuesta provisoria que pueda ser útil para mejorar la calidad de la atención mediante la capacitación y profesionalización de los recursos humanos que laboran en contextos indígenas, al brindarles contenidos provenientes de la antropología social y particularmente de la antropología médica.

Download or read book Language and Social Justice written by Kathleen C. Riley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-22 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language, whether spoken, written, or signed, is a powerful resource that is used to facilitate social justice or undermine it. The first reference resource to use an explicitly global lens to explore the interface between language and social justice, this volume expands our understanding of how language symbolizes, frames, and expresses political, economic, and psychic problems in society, thus contributing to visions for social justice. Investigating specific case studies in which language is used to instantiate and/or challenge social injustices, each chapter provides a unique perspective on how language carries value and enacts power by presenting the historical contexts and ethnographic background for understanding how language engenders and/or negotiates specific social justice issues. Case studies are drawn from Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America and the Pacific Islands, with leading experts tackling a broad range of themes, such as equality, sovereignty, communal well-being, and the recognition of complex intersectional identities and relationships within and beyond the human world. Putting issues of language and social justice on a global stage and casting light on these processes in communities increasingly impacted by ongoing colonial, neoliberal, and neofascist forms of globalization, Language and Social Justice is an essential resource for anyone interested in this area of research.
