Experiences of prognosis disclosure versus nondisclosure among family caregivers of persons with advanced cancer
Caregiving in the South Asian context is often assumed by family automatically for the person with cancer (PWC).

Fifty caregivers participated in semi-structured interviews; and data were analyzed using Framework Approach. For the disclosing caregivers, some of the themes that emerg…

Improvisation, therapeutic brokerage and antibiotic (mis)use in India
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is widely reported to be a rapidly escalating global health threat. Investigations into the social dimensions of AMR have tended to focus on economically wealthier nations, even though economically poorer countries are a site of considerable and often increasing antibiotic (mis)use. Understanding the global and local dynamics of antibiotic resistance, we propose, requires critical sociological investigation at the n…
Cultural ontologies of cancer in India
India has undergone a considerable epidemiological transition in the past few decades. The rise of cancer and other chronic illnesses has, and will continue to have, a substantial impact on the overall burden of disease, as well as the lived experiences of illness in India. Little is known about the cultural inflection of cancer in the Indian medical, historical and religious/spiritual landscape, which is both highly varied and rapidly changing. …

With cancer gaining an increasingly high profile in India, there is an urgent need to explore how experiences of cancer may be socially…
