Framing the Latin American nutrition transition in a historical perspective, 1850 to the present
This paper argues that many of the foundations and trends that led to the rise in obesity and other diet-related health problems in Latin America began to develop in the late nineteenth century. The tendency towards presentism in the nutrition transition literature provides a much abbreviated and limited history of changes in diet and weight. Whereas medical and nutrition researchers have tended to emphasize the recent onset of the crisis, a hist…
Our Archaic System
The treatment of draft dodgers and miscarriages of justice by Argentine military courts provoked mobilisations by families, communities and the major political parties. An examination of the debates and discussions around these issues reveals a widespread sentiment that rarely questioned neither the right of the armed forces to draft young men nor the legitimacy of the armed forces. By adopting the language of patriotism and civic obligation, ind…
Benjamin Bryce. To Belong in Buenos Aires
Benjamin Bryce’s deeply researched and well-written book To Belong in Buenos Aires: Germans, Argentines, and the Rise of a Pluralist Society reminds us that ethnic and national identities are rarely fixed or static. In the case of Germans in Argentina, they started arriving before Germany existed, and many came from places that would never form part of Germany, including Switzerland, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Russia, and even countries that ne…

The barracks receives spoiled children and returns men”
In 1918 an anonymous conscript writing to La Protesta , an anarchist paper known for its anti-militarism, complained about life in the Argentine navy. The military was a “school of vice” where everyone was reduced to a number and was subject to the most cruel and random subordination. The conscript fumed, “You even lose control of your hair.”

Enemy in the blood
Home Grown
Just about anyone who has seen the film Reefer Madness is in on the joke. Since its rediscovery at the Library of Congress in the 1970s, the film’s portrayal of people going insane after smoking marijuana has amused audiences as an absurd depiction of the drug. Yet Isaac Campos paused to ask a set of questions with direct bearing on the origins of both the idea of marijuana’s dangerousness and the current “war on drugs.” Why did nineteenth-centur…

La ciudad impura
In La ciudad impura, Diego Armus examines the cultural and medical history of tuberculosis during the transitional period between Koch’s bacteriological discoveries and the advent of antibiotics. As with syphilis, which was only identified in 1905, there was a long period between the identification of the disease’s etiology, the tuberculosis bacillus, and the development of an effective cure. Armus argues that many of the responses to the disease…
Cold War, Deadly Fevers
In the midst of the multinational health campaign to eradicate malaria in Mexico during the 1950s, poor rural Mexicans gave the nickname “cat killers” to the men who sprayed their homes with DDT. These campesinos had figured out what doctors and scientists had either ignored or failed to notice: DDT is poisonous to more than just mosquitoes and fleas. In Cold War, Deadly Fevers, Marcos Cueto analyzes the often strained encounters between rural Me…
Authoritarianism, Democracy and Psychiatric Reform in Argentina, 1943-83
From 1955 through the early 1970s a group of Argentine psychiatrists, influenced by psychoanalysis and the mental health movement, and supported by military and civilian governments alike, began attempts to transform psychiatric care by replacing large asylums with day hospitals, general hospital clinics and therapeutic communities. Their goals included integrating psychiatry into the mainstream of medicine, improving medical and social services …
Freud in the Pampas
With wit and erudition, Mariano Plotkin explores the history of the diffusion and reception of psychoanalysis in twentieth-century Argentina. The author sets for himself a daunting intellectual task: “Only a multidimensional approach that integrates into the narrative the complex of conditions that facilitated the phenomenon can explain why and how a psychoanalytic culture emerged” (p. 8). Notwithstanding the challenge of sifting through ever-cha…
