  • Changes in Clinical Practice in Response to Reductions in Reimbursement

    Open AccessKaren L Posner, William M Gild et al.ARTICLEMedical Anthropology Quarterly1995Cited by: 1References: 18

    This analysis of field data from 1991 and 1992 examines the process of joint decision making between cardiothoracic surgeons and anesthesiologists in a U.S. hospital as they made changes in clinical practice in response to reimbursement reductions.

Not that there has been any unanimity of opinion about these institutions at any time in their history, but until relatively recently the disputes were often among insiders. These disputes were conducted within Western culture, within the professional world of specialists, and within a universe of agreed upon and accepted ideas about a viewing public and the obj…

  • Economic Development and Economic Change

    Harold K Schneider, Kendall Blanchard et al.ARTICLECurrent Anthropology1974Cited by: 7

    Exploring anew the old question of why East African pastoral peoples tend to be conservative, this paper suggests that a de-Westernized cross-cultural application of economic theory, both statics and dynamics, coupled with transaction theory, (social exchange), reveals a distinction between economic development, the exponential growth of a specific economy, and economic change, a shift from one specific kind of economy to another.

    true with respect to Africa than it is elsewhere. Natanael Carpenter writing in 1625 tells us, The extreame Inhabitants towards the Poles are naturally inclined to Mechanicall workes and martial endeavors; the extreame towards the AEquator to the work of Religion and Contemplation: the Middle to lawes and civility. This is little different, if less sophisticated, than the views of Huntington or Semple. (Huntington and Carlson 1933, Semple 1925). …
