The good, the bad and the grey areas of care
Current societal transformations in health care and other fields of care have led to an enormous increase in the number of publications in the anthropology of care. Yet, the field turns out to be fragmented and complex. To provide some orientation, we present results of a scoping review on empirical research on paid care work in health-care settings. We structure our findings according to whether the authors tend to focus on ‘good’, ‘bad’ or ‘gre…
Grounding global health in care
Recent academic and activist critiques raise important points about the ways in which coloniality, migration and racialization are often overlooked in global health research and practice. In particular, these critiques highlight how such structural forces perpetuate inequalities and exclusions, as well as processes of epistemic violence in global health. While agreeing with these critical interventions, this paper argues for a focus on care and t…

Training teachers of the discipline for the field is still in development worldwide and needs more atten…

Training for teaching medical anthropology in Egypt/the Arab region
Medical anthropology is a growing subfield of anthropology, especially as a subject within health education. Medical anthropology knowledge and skills improve the satisfaction of patients and health professionals, better health outcomes for patients, improve communication, avoid conflicts, or make it possible to deal successfully with these etc. The Arab region is an underserved one when it comes to medical anthropology in health education. We ca…
Applied anthropology’s invisibility in Europe
A little monster inside me that comes out now and again
The topics of endometriosis and pain imply far-reaching problems for women's health. Using a qualitative research approach, this paper addresses the subjective experience and effects of pain, the methods for dealing with these issues, and the needs of affected women in Austria. Data were collected by problem-focused interviews conducted with ten women suffering from endometriosis, which were later transcribed and subjected to qualitative content …
