| Course Title: Special Topics in Anthropology: 'Case Studies in Global Health' |
| Start Date: 01/23/2023 End Date: 05/08/2023 |
| Term: Spring Semester 2023 |
| Description: This course is devoted to anthropological perspectives on global health projects and paradigms. We will interrogate how current global health programs emerged from 19th and 20th century development logics, as well as the concurrent rise of discourses, laws and practices that posited healthcare as a universal human right, and how these transformations of these concepts are still mobilized in global health strategies today. We will pay particular attention to when and how health burdens come under governmental jurisprudence or corporate control, how these reworkings affect individual risk and responsibility, or what it means to be ill or well across different global contexts. |
