Health practices, resources and governance in the margins of the state.

Description

This programme will: document and analyze practices and ways of managing illness that focus on the non-state-endorsed / delegitimated sectors and subaltern populations; provide case studies of the transmission of knowledge and practice in non-literate contexts; examine the changing material health resources that have been available and affordable (foods, medicinals, technologies) for people within specific urban/rural/tribal settings. The cohering elements of these studies are attention to the s ituation of being in the margins at thresholds of access to credible modalities of treatment, how such credibility has been conceived, performed, contested, in changing conditions of possibility.
