The article discusses the course and the results of research on blood donation conducted between 2006 and 2007 in Italy among immigrant communities (Romanian and Senegalese) in Tuscany, conducted by the cultural anthropologist Fabio Dei and his team. The studies reveal that practices related to blood donation are accompanied by a plural-ism of mutually incommensurable discourses stemming from a varie-ty of contexts: biomedicine, religious belief, and conceptualizations of health and disease in traditional cultures. Their identification and de-scription may prove to pose a major question in studies on blood dona-tion conducted both in Europe and worldwide
