Thinking through the Photo Essay
As photography becomes more prevalent in ethnographic research, scholars should more seriously consider the photo essay as a medium for sharing their work. In this Position Piece, we present guidelines for the creation of ethnographic photo essays for medical anthropology that do not simply combine image and text, but create a balance that allows words to provide context for the image(s) and images to reinforce or challenge the text. We feel ther…

Anthropological Data in the Digital Age
Memes in medical education
Memes are highly malleable forms of visual media that provide insight into the dominant discourses within a community. This essay presents the top meme posts on /r/medicalschool, a thread on Reddit, an anonymous news-aggregating site, which are the most discussed posts by users, who are predominantly medical students. Within this digital space, users attempt to make meaning of the process of professionalization and what their new roles have in st…
A journey through chronic illness
Commentary on “The Affective Lens”
Dissecting Images
When Foucault spiraled into the historical depths of the rise of the modern clinic and the double-edged sword of biopower, he foregrounded the primacy of the medical gaze (Foucault 1973). With each
Test test test test Visualizing Tensions in an Ethnographic Moment
Images function as sources of data and influence our thinking about fieldwork, representation, and intersubjectivity. In this article, I show how both the ethnographic relationships and the working method of photography lead to a more nuanced understanding of a healing event. I systematically analyze 33 photographs made over a 15-minute period during the preparation and application of a poultice (topical cure) in a rural Andean home. The images c…
Ethical Issues in Patient-Centered Outcomes Research and Comparative Effectiveness Research
Community bioethics dialogues were held on the topic of patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) and comparative effectiveness research (CER). Participants were 65 and older and represented either a lower income, African American group (A) or a higher income White group (B). Participants were presented with a variety of background reading and study materials. Meetings were held 2 hr per week for 6 weeks. The groups showed both independence in ju…
Experimental Ethnography Online
This essay describes The Asthma Files, an experimental, digital ethnography project structured to support a collaborative research process and new ways of presenting academic research. While examining ways in which asthma is understood, cared for and governed in varied settings, the project also examines how digital tools can be used to support new research practices, new ways of expressing ethnographic analyses and new ways of drawing readers to…
Becoming Luis
Luis is an Aymara boy whom I have known since his birth in 1996. Although he and his mother were not initially central to my research on migration in the Andes, they belong to the family I worked with in El Alto, Bolivia. During a return visit ten years later, I recognized the importance of his story within my research, and thus reviewed my field notes and photo library to find images and stories about them. Photography plays a major role in my r…
The Metamorphosis of Heads by Denise Arnold, with J. Yapita
Pittsburgh : University of Pittsburgh Press , 2006 . In The Metamorphosis of Heads, Denise Arnold, with linguist Juan de Dios Yapita, develops a theory of Andean textuality grounded in solid, ethnographic detail, and supported by elegant linguistic description of a rural Aymara community in Oruro, Bolivia. Arnold focuses on how Aymara worldview is expressed through woven cloth, which she maintains to be a local form of text. Specifically, weaving…
Ethnography from the Field
Living on the Edge
Like many other cities in Latin America, La Paz, Bolivia, has experienced rapid urbanizationthroughout the past two decades. Aymara-speaking migrants from theLake Titicaca region and across the Altiplano head for this capital in search of economic prosperity, and end up living in the bedroom city of El Alto, perched on the valley rim above La Paz. Once in the city, some migrants maintain strong ties with their rural origins while others disassoci…
Disparate Views of Community in Primary Health Care
The importance of community in primary health care (PHC) is evident in the role of community participation and in the types of programs that are routinely implemented (community health-worker [CHW] programs, community clinics, community-based disease-control programs). Few health care providers and program administrators, however, have considered the meaning of community. Instead, they frequently impose their own definition of community and assum…
