Consent to testing for brain death
Canada has recently published a new Clinical Practice Guideline on the diagnosis and management of brain death. It states that consent is not necessary to carry out the interventions required to make the diagnosis. A supporting article not only sets out the arguments for this but also contends that ‘UK laws similarly carve out an exception, excusing clinicians from a prima facie duty to get consent’. This is supplemented by the claim that recent …
Courts, rights and the critically brain-injured patient
The reality of current clinical practice in the UK is that where a patient’s family refuses to agree to testing for brain stem death (BD), such cases will ultimately end up in court. This situation is true of both adults and children and reinforced by recent legal cases. While recourse to the courts might be regrettable in such tragic cases, if public trust in the medical diagnosis of BD is to be maintained all aspects of the process must be cond…
Disputing death
Death by neurological criteria (DNC) has remained controversial since its introduction over 50 years ago. Objections to the diagnosis of DNC have been coming before the courts in various jurisdictions, including at least seven recent challenges before the UK courts. In responding to these challenges, the UK courts have expressed no doubts as to the status of DNC and have affirmed that following a diagnosis of DNC, the matter of best interests is …

Shame, stigma and medicine
No description available
Health-related shame
Despite shame being recognised as a powerful force in the clinical encounter, it is underacknowledged, under-researched and undertheorised in the contexts of health and medicine. In this paper we make two claims. The first is that emotional or affective states, in particular shame, can have a significant impact on health, illness and health-related behaviours. We outline four possible processes through which this might occur: (1) acute shame avoi…
Communication
December 1, 2009To the Editors:In his review (vol. 89, no. 1, pp. 184 – 85) of my book Remembering the Hacienda: Religion, Authority, and Social Change in Highland Ecuador (University of Texas Press, 2006), Mark Thurner graciously praises my writing and my ethnographic material, but his review distorts or omits some of my major arguments.Thurner says that the book “leaves history behind” after an early “background” chapter. It is true that the ne…
Discipline and the Arts of Domination
Mestizo and indigenous authorities on 20th-century highland Ecuadorian haciendas exercised authority through culturally hybrid practices of ritual discipline. Rather than opposing force to persuasion, I argue that hacienda discipline used coercion as part of a strategy of persuasion. This argument is tied to a social-structural as well as cultural notion of hegemony: By regulating internal social relations, authorities linked their power to the n…

“To Act Like a Man”
This chapter focuses on notions of masculinity and resistance among Quichua-speaking indigenous villagers, or Runa, in Pangor, a parish in Chimborazo province in the central highlands of Ecuador. Indigenous Pangorenos' notions of masculinity have been intertwined with authority and resistance in class, ethnic, and age-based hierarchies. This essay deals primarily with the early to mid-twentieth century, when haciendas dominated the area, but also…
Religion, Authority, and Identity
This essay examines the ambivalent interaction between liberation theology and notions of ‘respect’ among Quichua speakers in highland Ecuador. It focuses on three ways that notions of respect rooted in local history inform and transform current Catholic practice and ethnic politics. First, indigenous Catholic activists and mestizo priests appeal to respect for elders to argue for ethnic and religious loyalty. Second, the memory of hacienda-era d…
Taita Chimborazo and Mama Tungurahua
When a friend in Chimborazo Province, central Ecuador, took me to his home village in 1995, he introduced me there as the gringo who sang the "Taita Chimborazo, Mama Tungurahua," a song broadcast from time to time on the morning Quichua radio program. The song is built on the story of "Amo Badillo," a landowner who died in the middle of this century. After his death Amo Badillo is supposed to have gone to Mt. Tungurahua-locally identified with pu…
