Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salud y enfermedad se expresan en el cuerpo, y éste habla por tanto de manera nítida a través de la enfermedad. Sin embargo, estos conceptos resultan tremendamente variables según los contextos culturales en los que se asienten, representándose así el ser humano como una entidad plural y relativizada por la antropología. En este sentido, cabría decir que se impone la necesidad de un entendimiento intercultural entre las ideas de cuerpo y persona, y el intercambio de saberes médicos que en cada lugar se reconocen para procurar la salud. Un debate en el que desgraciadamente suele pesar el etnocentrismo de diferentes profesionales de la salud procedentes de un sistema biomédico occidental que muchas veces ignora estas concepciones diferentes, ocasionalmente las desprecia o se muestra incapaz de integrarlas a sus propios modelos. El volumen busca explorar la posibilidad y complejidad de las actuaciones sanitarias entre agentes y usuarios de culturas y contextos diferenciados de América Latina. Su propósito no es otro que el de favorecer la reflexión sobre aplicaciones teóricas y prácticas que la perspectiva intercultural puede ofrecer en el dominio de la salud, un tema tan en boga y a la vez tan necesitado de revisión crítica.

This book was released on 2024-03-20 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Anthropology and Global Health provides an overview of the complex relationship between anthropology and global health. The book brings together a diverse group of scholars who consider the intersection of anthropological concerns with health and disease as understood and intervened upon by the field of global health. The book is structured around five sections: (1) social, cultural, and political determinants of health; (2) knowledge production in anthropology and global health; (3) persistent invisibilities in global health; (4) reimagining a critical global health; and (5) new horizons in anthropology and global health. Over these five themes a range of topics is explored, including: rare diseases medical pluralism universal global health protocols HIV health security indigenous communities (non)communicable diseases decolonizing global health The Routledge Handbook of Anthropology and Global Health is an essential resource for upper-level students and researchers in anthropology, global health, sociology, international development, health studies, and politics.

Download or read book Latin American Perspectives on the Sociology of Health and Illness written by Fernando De Maio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sociology of health and illness is a rapidly growing field. Yet, as a field, it has suffered from a remarkably limited perspective dominated by scholarship produced in the global north. Scholars in the sociology of health and illness have been late to enter debates in global health and have generally failed to learn lessons from work originating in the global south. To begin to address this limitation, this edited collection features notable contributions from Latin American scholars exploring key issues, including sickle cell disease in Brazil, cancer and Chagas disease in Argentina and reproductive health in Mexico. This collection, offering a snapshot of the rich and nuanced research being conducted in the region, offers readers valuable lessons. It is our argument that Latin American health sociology has much to offer the larger field of sociology – both for what it can teach us about Latin America in and of itself, and for what this field of scholarship can teach us about health and illness as broadly defined. This collection challenges readers to think about the global nature of health inequalities. Rich in empirical data and theoretical substance, this book is an essential collection for readers interested in understanding the sociology of health and illness. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Health Sociology Review and as individual papers in Global Public Health and Critical Public Health.
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.

Download or read book Pensar la interculturalidad una invitaci n desde Abya Yala Am rica Latina written by Cruz Rodríguez, Edwin and published by Editorial Abya - Yala. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro concluye con una tesis llamativa: el no-teísmo viene a se el último paso, la estación de términos hacia la que la historia religiosa -la occidental al menos- parece caminar: desde el politeísmo, el henoteísmo, el monoteísmo pasando por la ilustración europea y el conflicto cristianismo/ateísmo…para desembocar en el no-teísmo, como la resolución del conflicto y la superación de los malentendidos seculares entre el cristianismo y la modernidad. Los dos -cristianismo y ateísmo- tenían razón, la ración parcial de unas posiciones, que ahora, a la altura de estos tiempos, vemos que los dos deben rectificar. Ya la Gaudium et spes (19-22) modificó parcialmente la actitud oficial de la Iglesia católica hacia el ateísmo; Lenaers se atreve a decir que hay que ir todavía bastante más allá para terminar de realizar plenamente la reconciliación con la modernidad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Repensar la antropología política en el marco de la multiculturalidad y desde una perspectiva teórica que enfatiza la necesidad histórica de asumir el carácter plural de las sociedades estatales contemporáneas, es parte de las motivaciones centrales de esta obra. Los procesos interculturales a los que me refiero son básicamente aquellos en los que participan los pueblos natales y los Estados nacionales, configurando sistemas históricos de larga duración y caracterizados por una especial dinámica sistémica. Se trata también de un ejercicio de sistematización conceptual, que busca recoger algunos de los aportes que en las últimas décadas ha generado la vertiente pluralista de la antropología social.
