Paul Farmer, un héritage qui nous oblige
Paul Farmer, anthropologue et médecin américain reconnu pour ses recherches et son engagement extraordinaire auprès de populations démunies et malades, est décédé en février 2022, à l’âge de 62 ans. Il est particulièrement célèbre pour avoir défendu sa conviction que la pauvreté ne devait pas être un obstacle à des traitements de qualité, particulièrement pour des maladies infectieuses comme le VIH et la tuberculose. En raison de sa notoriété (ta…
Capturing kontredans
In the rural Haitian community of Ti Rivyè, dancers and musicians perform kontredans, a dance based on 18th-century European social dances and strongly influenced by African musical sensibilities and movement vocabulary. Those who perform it today are the descendants of enslaved persons who overthrew their colonial masters in an unprecedented revolutionary war. This article presents a specific kontredans and accompanies a documentary film that in…
Kèk konsèy pou fasilite entegrasyon etidyan nan lavi entelèktyèl
Pou moun ki gen chans kontinye etid yo aprè segondè, ane nou pase nan inivèsite se yon peryòd nou aprann anpil. Atravè lekti, kou, seminè, echanj, deba, nou konfwonte nouvo lide, aprann nouvo teyori epi adopte nouvo tèknik kap sèvi nou nan metye nou vle pratike. Malerezman, etidye nan inivèsite pa bay garanti n ap kapab travay nan domèn nou te chwazi a. Gen anpil abitid ak pratik ki ka ede etidyan reyisi nan miliye akademik ak pwofèsyonèl, men an…

Components of a Moral Economy
The concept of "moral economy" has garnered the attention of anthropologists for its juxtaposition of two central dimensions of human experience that are often treated as distinct realms. However, the concept's analytic potential remains limited, in part because of the challenges in identifying what specifically a moral economy might comprise or entail. I suggest that articulating components of moral economies-in this case interest, credit, and d…
Troubling Objectivity
Building research capacity is a central component of many contemporary global health programs and partnerships. While medical anthropologists have been conducting qualitative research in resource-poor settings for decades, they are increasingly called on to train "local" clinicians, researchers, and students in qualitative research methods. In this article, I describe the process of teaching introductory courses in qualitative research methods to…
