With fears of global health epidemics (of reemerging infectious diseases) having escalated over the past few decades, we must ask how we understand the diverse responses to such outbreaks. I explore a single event that merits revisiting—the 1994 outbreak of plague in Surat, the commercial capital of the Indian state of Gujarat—in an attempt to answer this question. I trace responses at various intersecting levels of public health and political authority—global, national, and local—as they interacted with each other and expressed specific political concerns and social anxieties during this outbreak
