Dear colleagues,
A new blog “Medizinethnologie / Medical Anthropology: Body, Health and Healing in a Globalized World” has been launched by the Work Group Medical Anthropology in the German Anthropological Association:
http://www.medizinethnologie.net/?page_id=31
The blog publishes texts around issues related to the anthropology of transnational health interventions; migration, mobility and health; and the encounters between diverse medical ideas and practices in an interconnected world. Most of the texts are in German, but we are also publishing pieces in English.
Some of the recent English contributions include:
* http://www.medizinethnologie.net/?p=491
Mustafa Abdalla: "Productive Pathologies: Poverty, Biovalue and Commodification of Disease in Urban Egypt"
* http://www.medizinethnologie.net/?p=468
Giorgio Brocco: "People with Albinism and Humanitarian NGOs in Tanzania: Identities between Local and Global Worlds"
* http://www.medizinethnologie.net/?p=391
Nasima Selim: "Healing the City: Sufi Prayers in Berlin’s Towers"
* http://www.medizinethnologie.net/?p=364
Ruari-Santiago McBride: "Ethnographic Practice within Public Health: Hierarchies of Evidence, the Political Economy of Practice and the Possibilities of Transdisciplinarity"

Hansjörg Dilger
